The Recioto di Soave Spumante 2022 from Monte Tondo is a sparkling dessert wine that shines with a light golden-yellow colour and a delicate, persistent mousse. The nose is inviting and rich, with aromas of honey, ripe peach and apricot, complemented by floral notes of white blossom and a subtle hint of citrus. On tasting, this wine reveals a perfect balance between sweetness and freshness. The bubbles create a refined and playful texture, while the palate is dominated by ripe fruit such as peach, apricot and tropical fruit. The light hint of honey and a touch of mineral freshness add extra complexity. The finish is elegant, long and refreshing, with a harmonious combination of sweetness and invigorating acidity.
Ideal with fruity desserts such as pear tart or apricot crumble, but also with creamy cheeses such as mascarpone or lightly sweetened dishes.
Monte Tondo is a renowned family estate based in the heart of the Veneto region, surrounded by the picturesque vineyards of Soave and Valpolicella. The winery has a long tradition spanning three generations and is dedicated to making wines that reflect the unique terroir of the region. The family focuses on sustainable viticulture and works with the utmost care to guarantee the highest quality.

This process concentrates the flavours and gives the wine its characteristic intensity and complexity. Monte Tondo’s vineyards are located on some of the best plots in the region, characterised by limestone-rich soils and an ideal microclimate. This terroir, combined with traditional craftsmanship and modern technology, results in wines that perfectly capture the essence of Valpolicella. The Amarone della Valpolicella is a highlight of their range, a wine that combines finesse, richness and elegance and is a testament to their commitment to quality.
