Gavi DOC is a white wine appellation in Italy's Piedmont region, made from the Cortese grape. Known for its crisp acidity, light body, and delicate flavours of citrus, green apple, and white flowers, often with a subtle almond note on the finish, Gavi has long been one of Piedmont's most popular and food-friendly white wines, particularly enjoyed alongside the region's famous seafood and antipasti. While Piedmont is best known for powerful reds like Barolo and Barbaresco, Gavi offers a refreshing contrast — a clean, elegant white that showcases the versatility of the region. The best examples, particularly those labelled 'Gavi di Gavi' from the area immediately surrounding the town of Gavi, can show additional depth and minerality. Our Gavi collection offers a great introduction to this classic Piedmontese white. Gavi's bright acidity and delicate fruit make it an excellent match for seafood, light pasta dishes, and fresh antipasti, and it works equally well as a refreshing aperitif.
