The wine is made by the three Tessari sisters, Valentina, Meri and Alessandra. Together, the trio learned everything from their grandfather Guiseppe, who taught them to tend the land and how to make indigenous varietals with soaring aromatics and wonderfully minerality.
They run Suavia, a winery that along with all-time greats like Elena Walch and Elisabetta Fagiuoli have helped lead the charge in Italian white wine. The Tessari sisters have picked up almost a cult following in Soave, with their incredible lineup of wines.
This is far more than just a summer wine. Enjoy this high-toned treat all through the fall. It’s ideal as an aperitif, but can also stand up to just about everything from poultry to fresh fish, to any kind of cheese. The minerality – the balance, the pristine fruit, the price. There’s a whole lot to love here.

Textbook Soave with lemony fruit, nectarine and hints of white almond and chalk on the nose. Tangy and flavorful with fresh-toned acidity and a very subtle grip at the end. From organically grown grapes. 100% garganega. Drink now.

Stephan Steinmetz is a star in the Mosel wine region. His old vines are rooted in Kimmeridgian limestone, the exact same vein of rock that winds its way from Sancerre through Chablis and Champagne to its final out-cropping here in the Obermosel. His Elbling is glorious — both completely unlike anything I’ve ever had and also eerily familiar. The color is almost clear, some might call it silver. A stunning nose of green apples and lemon peel gives way to fresh pear and bright citrus fruits on the palate. It’s a stunningly focused wine with a healthy dose of minerality and acid zip, not unlike great Sancerre/Chablis and bone dry.
Gold Medal (Best in Show), 2023 Mundus Vini International Tasting
The area has also been isolated from the rest of Spain for generations, which has kept the wine prices far lower than wines of this quality would be anywhere else in the world. That’s why, despite having the Torres family name on the bottle and the consistent huge press (including the Gold Medal & Best in Show at the 2023 Mundus Vini International Wine Awards in Germany), these wines can still be scooped up for under $20/bottle. It’s like the Sancerre pricing of yesteryear.
One of the best places to look for great Tuesday nighters are the sandy, limestone-laden hills of Asti. And within Asti, there is no white wine calling card that holds a candle to Moscato. Here it is king. Gianni Doglia naturally farms a tiny estate in the picturesque hamlet of Castagnole Lanze. His Moscato is the product of old vines, vinfied without oak to preserve its incredible fruit. This is serious, high-quality and hand-harvested Moscat, that oozes with sweet tropical fruits and a hint of minerality that stays on your tongue with each sip. This is also the perfect wine for anyone searching for a low alcohol option as well.

If you’ve never heard of Bisci, let’s start here. Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate called Giuseppe Bisci’s Verdicchio “one of the finest I’ve ever tasted,” and noted that “Verdicchio is one of the joys of Italian oenology that rarely gets the respect it deserves, and few producers do it better than Bisci.” A staple at $85/bottle for both French Laundry and Eleven Madison Park. “Verdicchio is one of the joys of Italian oenology that rarely gets the respect it deserves, and few producers do it better than Bisci.” – The Wine Advocate
