LA GIUSTINIANA Gavi di Gavi 'Lugarara' - Piemonte 2024 HALF (37.5cl) (Cortese) VEG/VGN

Description

Donato Lanati, one of Italy’s best young consultants, began working with the owner of La Giustiniana, Enrico Tomalino, at the beginning of 1998. His indelible stamp of quality has become increasingly evident in recent years. The changes wrought in the winery seven years ago are now being matched with the improvements being made in the vineyard, where better grapes are giving purer, richer and better balanced wines. The estate covers 30 hectares in the heart of the commune of Rovereto in Gavi. Two single-vineyard wines are produced, both of which are unoaked so the character of the vineyards shines through. This 100% Cortese wine is light lemon/gold in colour, with fresh aromas of white peaches and nectarines. It is rich with good levels of acidity and a long mineral finish.
