Area: Soave comes from the area east of Verona in north east Italy. It's one of many well-known names in the Italian wine industry that have been tainted by years of over-production and commercialisation.
The best vineyards are invariably those in the rolling hills classified as 'Classico' and in the last 10 years there has been an exciting quality revival
