The La Scolca "Black Label" Gavi di Gavi is an iconic expression of Cortese, produced in the prestigious Gavi region of Piedmont. Known for crafting some of the finest Gavi wines, La Scolca has earned a reputation for precision and quality, with the Black Label being the estate’s flagship bottling. This wine is made from old vines, offering exceptional complexity, minerality, and elegance. It is a quintessential Gavi, with a beautifully refreshing and structured profile. On the nose, the La Scolca "Black Label" Gavi di Gavi opens with aromas of green apple, citrus zest, and white peach, with subtle floral notes of acacia and a touch of almond. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a crisp, zesty acidity that delivers flavors of lemon, pear, and a hint of tart pineapple. The wine’s hallmark is its distinct flinty minerality, which adds depth and complexity to the bright fruit. The finish is long, clean, and refreshing, with lingering notes of citrus and almond.
