Pantagruele - Cantina Martinelli

Pantagruele is the wine that best represents Cantina Martinelli. From only Garganega grapes and from a spontaneous vinification and subsequent aging in only steel tanks for 20 months on the fine lees. A wine that stands out for its complexity, freshness and ease of drinking.

Service

We taste it at a temperature around 8/10 ° C. Wine to be drunk immediately but if left in the cellar for a few years it can give great satisfaction.

Pairings

Recommended with white meats, sauces and young cheeses, to try with saffron risotto and prawns.

Winery: Cantina Martinelli

Something curious and in some ways fascinating is happening in the Soave area. Almost every year a new production reality comes out, generally small companies that have very few hectares of vineyards and produce a very small number of bottles look with interest towards the boundaries of sustainability and nature. One of these is the Cantina Martinelli which is located in Fitta Soave, in the province of Verona, in the Classic area of ​​Soave. One and a half hectares of Garganega vineyards with an average age of 50 years, which was bought twenty-five years ago by Dario Martinelli, and that now that he has retired he thought it was time to start making wine. So helped by his son Francesco Martinelli, by the agronomist Antonio Zappoli and by the vignerons Stefano Menti, he threw himself into this new adventure. The first vintage in the bottle was 2017.
