Description

Tasting Notes and Characteristics:

Enrico Serafino Gavi Di Gavi DOC offers a crisp, refreshing experience that shines on warm afternoons or as an elegant aperitif. With an ABV of 12.5%, this Italian white wine is crafted from 100% Cortese grapes grown in the heart of Piedmont’s Gavi region, where cool breezes and mineral-rich soils shape its character. The careful vinification process preserves the grape’s natural vibrancy, resulting in a wine that feels both lively and refined.

On the palate, Enrico Serafino Gavi Di Gavi reveals delicate notes of green apple, pear, and citrus zest layered with subtle hints of almond and white flowers. Its bright acidity and clean minerality make it a perfect match for fresh seafood dishes like oysters or grilled prawns, enhancing their flavors without overpowering them. The wine also pairs beautifully with creamy goat cheese, where its zesty profile cuts through richness for a balanced finish.
