Gavi di Tassarolo Fornaci is a single vineyard wine named after a brick kiln – fornace in Italian – that used to stand in place of the vineyards, within the township of Tassarolo. Cortese grapes are soft pressed and fermented at a low temperature so as to maintain the classic, delicate floral and fruity bouquet of citrus, peach and green apple. The palate is dry and refreshing with a hint of bitter almond and can cellar well, developing toasty honeyed notes. A versatile dry white that is particularly well suited to seafood.
