La Giustiniana `Lugarara` Gavi di Gavi, Piedmont, Italy, 2023

Gavi di Gavi is a small 1,200 hectare area within the Town of Gavi itself, this is where the very best Gavi is made. It is made with Cortese, and is fast becoming a real hit with us Brits, dare I say it replacing our beloved Pinot Grigio?!

Straw-yellow in colour this wine has aromas of white fruit, stone fruit and lime zest, which are immediately beguiling and followed by a subtle yet persistent bouquet of green apples. The palate is well-balanced with a fresh acidity and impressive structure. Almond notes linger on the finish, a classic Italian white note!
