Anselmi Chapter Croce Veneto Bianco

The Capitel Croce is Roberto Anselmi's answer to the question of what can become more than Soave from Garganega: a structured, aromatically complex white wine that is unparalleled in the Veneto.

Roberto Anselmi consciously broke with the Soave DOC in the 1980s to work without compromise — hand-picking, yield reduction, aging in barriques. The Capitel Croce, named after the "Capitel Croce" vineyard near Monteforte d'Alpone, is his most famous wine and shows what Garganega is capable of with care in the cellar.

In the glass: light golden yellow with green reflections. On the nose, grapefruit, ripe apple, and elderflower, plus a delicate hint of white peach and acacia blossom. The aging in small oak barrels adds a creamy texture underneath without masking the fruit. The finish is medium-long, fresh-mineral with a slightly salty note.

The Winery

Anselmi

Roberto Anselmi – a winemaker with principles. In 2000, he left the Soave consortium because he did not agree with mass production and low prices. Since then, his wines no longer carry a Soave designation – but they carry all the more character.

On 70 hectares in the hills of Monteforte d’Alpone, on volcanic and calcareous soils, the Garganega grape is queen. With reduced yields, hand-picking, and the courage to go his own way, Anselmi showed what true quality from this region can be.

Today, his children Tommaso and Lisa continue the legacy – with fungus-resistant varieties. The result: white wines with elegance, minerality, and history.
