Description
This Gavi originates from the vineyards arranged in a crown around the cellar of La Raia. The calcareous and clayey soil, southern exposure and the typical microclimate ensure the best cultivation conditions for the native Cortese vine.
The grapes are harvested by hand around the second half of September. After a careful selection, the bunches reach the cellar where the soft pressing takes place. The must thus obtained ferments in stainless steel tanks for 15-20 days at a constant temperature of 18 °C. The wine ages in contact with the fine lees for 3-4 months.
Its colour is straw yellow with delicate greenish reflections. The nose is fine and mineral, with aromas of fruit and white flowers. On the palate it is lively and balanced, with persistent and excellent freshness that guarantees great drinkability. Closes on a slightly almond finish.
Perfect as an aperitif, it is excellent in combination with appetizers and first courses with fish or vegetable sauce. It also goes well with shortly aged cheeses and white meats.
