Batasiolo Gavi is a white wine produced by the renowned Batasiolo winery in the Gavi appellation of Piedmont, Italy. The wine is made from the Cortese grape variety, which is grown in the rolling hills of the region. The vineyards are characterized by their limestone and clay soils, which impart a unique minerality to the wine.
After harvest, the grapes are destemmed and gently pressed. The fermentation occurs in stainless steel controlled temperature vats after which the wine is aged for a short period in stainless steel tanks to preserve the freshness and fruitiness of the wine. The resulting wine is crisp, refreshing, and elegant, with notes of citrus, green apple, and white flowers.
