Stefano Massone Gavi "Masera" 2022

Gavi is a wonderfully, mineral-driven white wine made in and around the eponymous township in SE Piemonte. The only difference between “Gavi DOCG” and Gavi di Gavi DOCG” is that the latter can only be made of fruit grown within the borders of the Comune or township.  Other than that, they’re identical wines and, more importantly, utterly delicious!  With its characteristic greenish tinge and notes of acacia flowers and green apple, it delivers a mineral-laden yet fruity wine with a bitter almond finish that pairs beautifully with all manner of dishes.
