Villa Sparina Gavi del Comune di Gavi 2017
Gavi, Piedmont, ItalyFrom Gavi's clay/marl soils, and 250-300m hills, this cortese was stainless fermented, preserving the crisp, lean yellow and green fruit. There's a lilt of florals, but otherwise this is a very quiet, delicate wine that dissipates quickly. Villa Sparina was founded by the Moccagatta family in the 1970's, and sweeps over 100 hectares of land, 70 of which are planted to vines.Tasted: 19 December 2018Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $21.50 | 750ml | private wine shops |
