Asda Soave Classico 2007
£3.62 12% White 4/5
My wife prefers the cheaper Asda Soave at about £2.58 a bottle, but I disagree.
Soave can be a fairly unexciting wine, whilst this one isn’t exactly memorable it avoids the slightly bitter, pithy taste that can characterise Soave.
It’s slightly sweet, but smooth and refreshing so you can drink it with or without a meal.
The notes on the bottle refer to a soft, smooth, appley flavour; this white coming from the Veneto region of Italy. Philippa Carr recommends trying it with caesar salad or slightly seared tuna.
As far as I’m concerned any salad or fish dish would do.
My rating of 4/5 takes into account the price and is more an indication of my perceived value for money. I’d buy it again.
