2019 | Azienda Agricola Villa Sparina | Monterotondo Gavi

Lots of stone and mineral character with an undercurrent of ripe lemon and peaches. Medium to full body, layered and flavorful. Lovely rich texture, great personality.

Reviews:

• James Suckling: Quite a serious yet understated Gavi, showing good, limey minerality with lemon rind and nectarine pit on the nose, following through to a full body with a quintessential palate. Elegant, bright and subtle, despite the nice, chewy flavors. Drinkable now, but shows aging potential, too.

Producer Information

Located in Monterotondo, the heart of Gavi DOC, Villa Sparina was founded by Mario Moccagatta. The winery is currently run by Mario, along with his two sons Stefano and Massimo. Head enologist Beppe Caviola, one of the foremost winemakers in Piemonte, has brought Gavi to new heights exploring the full potential of the Cortese grape. All of the Villa Sparina wine are produced from estate grown fruit and are estate bottled. The vineyards are overseen by agronomist Federico Curtaz, formerly of Gaja. They are increasingly oriented towards reducing yields, in an effort to achieve the highest possible quality. Harvest is delayed until the last possible moment, giving the wines great concentration and a wonderful balance of acidity and fruit.
