NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This La Battistina Gavi offers a nose of white peach, lemon blossom, and a hint of green apple.On the palate, the wine is vibrant and energetic, with a medium body and a pleasant mix of citrus and stone fruit flavors. The balance of acidity and minerality is spot on, and the finish is refreshingly long. This is an excellent example of the Gavi, and a great choice for seafood and pasta dishes.
