Place: Gavi - Piedmont, Italy
Variety: Cortese
Farming: Organic
La Mesma is the rising star of the Gavi and is both owned and operated by the Rosina sisters, Paola, Francesca and Anna.
The vineyards lay across two key zones. The first being the clay-dominant soils around the cellar in Tassarolo, the second is the poor, calcareous soils of the idyllic cru of Monterotondo. The vines are perched high at 300masl, which has become essential to contend with the recently blazing summers.
Gavi pet nat! A fresh, textural delight that ferments with indigenous yeast resulting in an uninhibited and delicious fizz. Chill it right down and enjoy with salty snacks.
