'Calvarino 5' by Pieropan is the first wine of the 'Vini dell'Anima' collection. Born from a project by Leonildo Pieropan and his sons Dario and Andrea, it is a blend of five vintages of Calvarino (2008-2009-2010-2011-2012) aged for at least 10 years in cement in the cellar. From Garganega and Trebbiano di Soave grapes, Calvarino 5 is the authentic expression of these vines, from volcanic soil. Savory and vertical, it opens into a range of aromatic herbs and flowers in the long run. Composed, elegant and persistent, with a dry taste, long on the finish. A Mediterranean wine in the soul and of great longevity. A unique and unrepeatable wine, produced in a limited edition.

The cellar Pieropan has the merit of having made the world aware of the Soave and his land as a synonym for great wines. In fact, it is the exasperated attention and selection of the best grapes, which are born all the wines of the winery Pieropan: assisted inseparable Teresita, Leonildo Pieropan demonstrated in the difficult years that it was possible, thanks to the work and to the respect of the vineyard, get results considered unreachable. The wines produced are distinguished by the style and to be authentic expressions of the territory and of the man who produces them with love and dedication. The Soave lands, strictly hills with very old vines, mostly trained by the pergola, giving great importance to Pieropan cellar.
The privileged position of the screws and the unconditional love with which Leonildo the care, makes the wines of essential and unique Pieropan for the concreteness of their style.
It is not easy to maintain such a profile over the decades, but anyone who has been lucky enough to taste a Soave Pieropan of over twenty years of age knows the evolutionary possibilities of the wines of this area, which in the bottles of this wine are one of greatest expressions. The same obsessiveness is also found in young red wines of Valpolicella (Ruberpan and Amarone), a new project that has enriched the Pieropan cellar.
