About the Producer:
Inspiring much
passion and dispute among Soave aficionados and wine writers, Stefano
Inama crafts original wines in both classical and international
styles. Garganega is Stefano’s favorite grape, but he is
devoting increasing attention to international black varieties.
Stefano inherited this Veneto winery from his father. Planted on
volcanic soil, all 30 hectares of vineyards face south, southeast,
and southwest. These vines lie in the hills of the Classico area,
which are actually the foothills of the Alps. However, the climate
is influenced by the nearby Mediterranean, resulting in the perfect
hodge-podge for grape growing: warm, but less humid than the coast
due to the high altitude. This provides a long growing season with
large fluctuations in diurnal temperatures, allowing the grapes
to ripen slowly to full maturity.
Starting with fully mature grapes, Stefano allows his wines to
macerate on the skins and ages his top cuvees in oak. The wines
glimmer with rich color and sing with lively aromas and flavors.
