Gavi di Gavi La Giustiniana Montessora 2022

La Giustiniana Montessora Gavi di Gavi 2022 is a medium-bodied, single-vineyard dry white wine produced in the Piedmont region of northern Italy. The La Giusiniana estate has been under vine since the 1600s and was originally cultivated by Benedictine monks whose monastery was built on the estate. Today, La Giustiniana is dedicated to producing two single-vineyard Gavi di Gavi wines here. Lugarara and Montessora. The two vineyards sit side by side at 300m above sea level, but they have very different soils and showcase two contrasting expressions of the Cortese grape. Montessora is characterised by alluvial and clay soils and produces more intense, mineral wines with good ageing potential. The 2022 was raised in stainless steel and displays bright peach, apple and citrus fruits along with a hint of almond and a pronounced mineral freshness.
