Fresh, Fizzy, and Fantastic: 2020 Monte Tondo Garganega Frizzante

Fresh, Fizzy, and Fantastic: 2020 Monte Tondo Garganega Frizzante

The Monte Tondo Garganega Frizzante is the ultimate summer white! Dry, crisp, and just a little bit spritzy, it’s super refreshing and thirst-quenching. For fans of Pet-Nat or Txakoli, this will be right up your alley.

Monte Tondo is one of the top estates in Soave, one of Italy’s key white wine regions, and the Garganega grape is the "headlining white" of the region. Monte Tondo's Frizzante possesses about 50% of the pressure of a traditional sparkling wine, and that's what makes it so fun!

Monte Tondo is a third generation, family-run estate nestled in the gentle hills of Soave, just outside of Verona. Father and daughter Gino and Marta Magnabosco oversee all aspects of production, from the vineyard to the bottle. They farm organically, they hand harvest, and they craft some of the finest wines of the region.

Their Garganega Frizzante is one of the most joy-inducing white wines in the store. Composed entirely of Garganega and fermented in sealed stainless steel tanks to preserve natural carbonation from fermentation, this is very lightly effervescent and oh-so delicious. Offering up aromas and flavors of fresh peach, pear, and white flowers along a rush of tiny, gentle bubbles, this one goes down way too easy.

The only thing left to do is pick some up, chill it down, pull the cork, and enjoy. It’s awesome with cold summer dishes — think salads, sushi, gazpacho, etc. But it’s also wonderful by itself at the beach, on the porch, or at the pool.
