WINEMAKER’S NOTES
Cortese di Gavi is an historical grape variety of the lower Piedmont Region.
Principessa Gavia is made from our own estate-grown grapes.
Thanks to the soft pressing and the stainless steel fermentation
at controlled low temperatures (always below 18°C),
its typical delicate aromas and crisp flavours are enhanced.
FOOD PAIRINGS
An aperitif wine, excellent with hors d’oeuvres,
it is also the perfect match
for seafood and poultry dishes.
