La Scolca – Gavi dei Gavi – 2019 – 375ML

100% Cortese.

Pale straw, with delicate greenish highlights. The nose is intense, long, continuous, persistent, from fruited to flowery to stage of development. The palate is highly typical, flinty accents; almonds and hazelnut in the finale.

Excellent with any meal; also for the usual pairings with white wines (fish, shellfish and seafood), well paired with white meats, fowl and light meats. Also ideal as aperitif and after dinner.

Aromas and flavors of cedro with light floral and herbal touches. Fresh, tasty palate with a clean, persistent finish. Just slightly rustic from the lees stirring, but interesting. James Suckling – 90
