La Ghibellina Brut Spumante Gavi 2013

Importer notes: “The sparkling brut from La Ghibellina is made from 100% estate-grown Cortese, aged on the lees for 24 months. There are few Italian indigenous varieties that make very good ‘classic method’ sparkling wines, and the tart mineral character of Cortese makes it an obvious choice. Excellent as a dry aperitif, or a match for seafood antipasti. The idea of this wine with ‘fritto misto’ is making my mouth water.”
