Product Description
Ca’ Bianca’s Gavi is sourced from the southern part of the province of Alessandria near the Ligurian Apennines. This area of deep valleys, close to the coast, has an ideal micro-climate to produce richly flavoured grapes enhanced by salty sea breezes. The vineyards are at a height of 220m with an easterly aspect. The soils are marl-calcareous with some sandy veins, allowing deep penetration of the vine’s roots resulting in greater mineral concentration in the wine.
After a manual harvest at the end of September the grapes undergo soft pressing and after settling the must has a slow temperature controlled fermentation in steel tanks. After about 16 days the wine is racked but left in contact with fine lees for a few months; then filtered.
Pale yellow with greenish tints. Stylish and delicate stone fruit and melon aromas with floral notes; the flavour is dry and crisp with an elegant mouth-watering finish of grapefruit.
