Beni di Batasiolo
Granée Gavi del Comune di Gavi Cortese
Gavi, Alessandria, Piedmont, Italy
Very clear and pale straw and gold yellow. Pleasant and quite present aromas of softly lime scented detergent, clean bed sheets, and lemon zest. Quite round entrance that changes into a sharp acidity in the third quarter. Nice medium to full body (not quite full), showing bold flavors of pear and green figs upon entrance. Shows very pleasant mineral and citric acidity, all in very good balance, and leaves the palate again with a fresh pear and very slight tangerine flavors, on a fairly long finish. This wine is simple but very authentic and terroir driven 85 pts
