GAVI RISERVA VIGNA LA MADONNINA 2021
Tasting notes
Colour is straw yellow, more or less intense. The aroma is fine and delicate, with floral hints typical of the Gavi area. Mouthfeel is rich, dry, harmonic, pleasant to the palate, savoury, with a persistent, warm finish.
Pairings
Excellent with seafood, above all with shellfish of which it brings out the particular taste, and with light first courses and risotto. It is the perfect match also for fresh or semi-soft cheese.
Why we like it

The must obtained is then decanted – without adding any oenological additives – at a low temperature. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in small stainless steel tanks at a controlled. Nearly 25 days later, at the end of fermentation, the wine is poured into another stainless steel tank, and there it remains for 6 months, as required by the production regulations. The Gavi docg Riserva is then bottled and continues refining for another six months in the bottle.Grapes are handipcked slightly raisined, with a golden yellow colouring. The wine obtained is characterized by a complex aroma of ripe fruit, honey and candied fruit.
