NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Gaja Idda Bianco is a stunning white from Italy's Piedmont region.On the nose, it presents aromas of ripe yellow apples and pears, joined by subtle notes of citrus, wildflowers, and herbs. On the palate, it is wonderfully fresh and crisp, with lovely flavors of stone fruit, white nectarine, and yellow plums, plus a hint of minerality and a refreshing acidity. The finish is clean and long. It is a delightful wine that pairs well with seafood, poultry, and light cheeses.
