Stopped in a wine bar in Hiroshima Japan called Lemon Stand. They serve natural wine and tonight’s option is this Sassaia. Wonderful surprise with nice acidity. Notes of apricot and oak but still young. This wine is delicious with the salinity of Hiroshima oysters. — 7 months ago

Top-notch Soave, complex and flavorful. This is a rich and bold white wine, so it will not be good for those looking for an unobtrusive Soave. Intense white fruit flavors, filled with cream and multiple fruits. Distinct lemon flavors throughout. — 4 years ago

A step above a basic Soave. White fruit, some florals, great minerality, a bit of salinity, nice texture on the long linear finish. Excellent refreshing acid too. Nice wine and a good value. — 5 months ago

Soave, not Soave. Crisp, light, good balance. Pair it with some fried zucchini or cantaloupe, it sings — 9 months ago

Pleasantly floral and slightly herbal, the 2021 Soave II Selene opens with green apple, candied lime and sweet sage aromas. Soft and supple, with crisp acids, the Selese finishes long and full of tension, leaving traces of Granny Smith apple and a salty minerality. $13.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, April 2023) — 3 years ago

Opened well before dinner; from a 750mL. The 2003 pours an amber color with a transparent core; medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with crazy notes of candied orange, golden raisins, figs, dates, and wildflower honey. On the palate, the wine is sweet with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is forever long. Mesmerizing stuff. Drink now through ????. — 5 months ago

No formal notes . Quite pale lemon yellow . This is quite ripely fruited , with touch of apricot , spiced lemon peel , pineapple , white peach . On the palate this has good freshness and slightly creamy texture . White peach and citrus peel with white almonds , good acidity . Reasonable length , grippy slightly toasty finish . Enjoy now and over the next 5 years . Quite modern and international in style , but well made and convincing.

The 2020 Soave is subtle and delicate in the glass with dusty yellow florals and hints of peach skins. It washes across the palate, soft and round, with a lovely mineral and acid balance. This leaves a glycerol coating of fruit concentration, yet still finishes remarkably fresh. While not the last note on depth, the 2020 is really quite lovely. (Eric Guido, Vinous, April 2022)
