Description
Valditerra Vini Gavi DOCG 2019
Valditerra Vini Gavi DOCG is dry and minimalist, yet elegant and refined. Straw yellow colour. Opens with an intense bouquet of fresh lime and white peach aromas. The palate is dry with a balanced structure, vivid acidity and velvety sensation. Fruity flavours of lime, peach and pear with a distinctive minerality that leads into a final savoury note.
100% Cortese. The fruit comes from Valditerra's vineyards, which extend for 13 hectares around their agricultural holding on the hills of Monterotondo. The quiet slopes have an average altitude of 260 metres with a beautiful view of the landscape. Vine-rows and vineyards are surrounded by locust and oak woods, which reflect in the fresh water of a lake.
The selection of the grapes and their soft pressing allows the creation of a must rich in aromas and taste. Slow fermentation with noble lees at controlled temperature and subsequent storage at low temperature. Bottling in an inert atmosphere and subsequent ageing in the bottle.
