Azienda Agricola Tessari

Fresh & Mineral

Wines from Soave are made with the local grape Garganega. Cantina Tessari has its vineyards in the volcanic hills above il Castello di Soave, which is the original - or 'Classico' - wine growing area in Soave, the best vines are located here. 

Tessari’s golden straw coloured Grisela is the backbone of the vineyard; a delicious entry level wine that is meant to be enjoyed on any occasion. Melba toast, elderflower and chamomile aromatics fill the glass with a notable mineral quality. The taste of crushed seashells dance on your tongue with a fun duo of stone fruit and citrus. The finish is refreshing with balanced acidity.

Grisela is excellent as an aperitif and for accompanying rich Italian seafood recipes and risottos.

The arch that forms the rolling hills of the Tessari territory inspired the name Arcerus, an ancient toponym linked to the tradition and history of Brognoligo. A pure Garganega sparkling wine, it shines with a lively straw-yellow color and fine bubbles. It offers intense aromas of apple, elderflower, and chamomile, while the palate is fresh and persistent, featuring notes of bitter almond and a delicate perlage that highlights the grape’s mineral character.

Perfect with vegetarian dishes like fresh goat cheese or porcini risotto, it also pairs beautifully with white meats, sushi, grilled shellfish, and traditional fare such as gnocchi with tomato and Monte Veronese cheese.

Bine Longhe—named after the “long rows” (longhe) of vines in the Costalta vineyard—derives its character from grapes grown on 300-meter rows and harvested late in autumn, reflected in the label’s warm colors. Selected grapes are left to over-ripen for 20 days before being hand-picked, de-stemmed, and gently pressed into must. Fermentation occurs at a controlled 16–18°C in steel tanks over about 12 months, with extended lees contact and batonnage to enhance natural antioxidants like glutathione. Afterward, the wine rests in the bottle for at least another year, allowing full integration of its components and minimizing the need for added sulfites.

Bine Longhe is an intense, brilliant straw-yellow wine made from late-harvested grapes left to over-ripen for about 20 days in the vineyard. It offers refined herbaceous and balsamic aromas with floral and fruity notes, while its full, mineral flavor is enveloping and persistent, ending with a hint of bitter almond. Though Soave is naturally delicate, the vibrant acidity of Bine Longhe lends it versatility, pairing beautifully with complex dishes such as fish, white meats, sausages, aged cheeses, and even rich recipes like salmon, Bolognese lasagna, chicken curry, pumpkin risotto, or bigoli with sardines.
