About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Cortese is grown on clay-limestone marl soils in vineyards within the municipality of Gavi.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand in the second half of September, then selected, sorted, destemmed and gently pressed. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks.

Ageing

The wine remains in the same stainless-steel tanks on fine lees until the following spring.

Tasting profile

Fragrant and fresh.
