Pieropan

Veneto whites anchored in Garganega, elevated through precision and complexity.

Pieropan produces wines from Veneto in northern Italy, drawing on the region's white wine heritage. The winery works primarily with local varieties: Garganega, the backbone of Soave, and Trebbiano, alongside international grapes like Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling. Passito della Rocca, a blend of Trebbiano, Sauvignon Blanc, and Riesling, represents the winery's approach to complexity in sweet wine, earning a 94.0 average prestige rating. The single-varietal 5 Calvarino, made from Garganega, scores 93.3, while Le Colombare Recioto di Soave Classico—another Garganega expression—reaches 92.5. These wines have been assessed by major critics including Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, Decanter, Wine Advocate, and Falstaff. The winery's focus on Garganega-based wines reflects deep engagement with Veneto's signature white grape, while the inclusion of Passito della Rocca signals exploration of richer, more concentrated styles alongside the region's classical dry expressions.
