Producer: Menti
Riva Arsiglia 2024 Vino Bianco
Gambellara, Vicenza
A dry, sharp, and elegant wine with a truly impressive aromatic soul. We are standing on the extinct volcanoes of Gambellara, yet despite the rugged terrain, a persuasive mouthfeel and striking maritime notes accompany every sip alongside a bold minerality. Riva Arsiglia 2024 by Menti is a Garganega that manages to be both gritty and sophisticated at the same time. While the nose offers an explosion of white flowers and citron zest, the real magic happens on the palate: that mineral, savory shock typical of Gambellara’s volcanic soil leaves an almost saline finish, perfect for resetting your palate between glasses. It is a straight-up, authentic wine, ready to be enjoyed now or forgotten in the cellar (we just tasted a 2018 the other day... and trust me, it was unreal).
It's the ideal bottle to uncork when the aperitivo gets serious, or when you want to impress someone who thinks all white wines taste the same.
Menti
The story of the Menti family unfolds across a century and a half of history, beginning in the late 19th century when the founder, Giovanni, settled in Gambellara, laying the foundations for a tradition deeply rooted in volcanic soils. A pivotal turning point came in 1964, the year Antonio was joined by a young Giovanni (known as Gianni), who would go on to define an era by completing an impressive 51 harvests through 2014.
Driven by Stefano’s innovative spirit, the new millennium brought a profound transformation: 2002 marked the beginning of a return to sustainable viticulture, a journey that culminated in 2010 with the practical introduction of biodynamic methods and in 2011 with the achievement of official organic certification. These milestones represent the perfect synthesis of past heritage and a vision of winemaking projected toward the future.
