Wine tasting at Coffele, Soave


On Wednesday we went for a wine tasting at Coffele, an outstanding producer of wine in the Soave DOC. Kirsten and I were treated to a tasting by a delightful Chiara, who spoke brilliant english and took us through some exquisite wines. The highlight being a 2005 dessert wine that was monumental, with only 600 bottles ever being produced. We were joined by a wine journalist and later the owner himself, and afterwards we were driven up to the estate itself in the hills surrounding Soave to tour the grounds. It was probably one of the most incredible days I have had in Italy thus far...
