| FIGINI
GAVI
This wine is produced with 100% Cortese grape
varietal, harvested exclusively from the Figini owned vineyards,
whi ch are located within the township of Gavi. Only Gavi produced
within this township can be called Gavi di Gavi. Miss Figini is
the wife of the noted Roberto Bergaglio, who acts as cellarmaster
and winemaker for her. The wine is produced with the method of
early separation of the "must" from its pulp and skins.
The separated clear "must" is then allowed to ferment
using special yeast which have been bred from year to year from
the finest grape harvests. The "must" is then fermented
under a temperature-controlled system. The high quality of the
grape harvest and the method of vinification enables Figini to
offer product which is delicate and lean in body, but at the same
time, rich of all its fruits and fragrance.
This is a fine wine for just sipping, or to serve with hors d'oeuvres
and salads or lean white meats and shellfish. Serve chilled.
