White floral nose then lime acidity on the palate to wake up your taste buds in this vibrant Italian white wine. Medium-bodied, clean and crisp. Great aperitif! A vibrant citrus finish. Finishes with notes of green apple, anise and lime. Pair with creamy cheeses or grilled prawns.

Food pairings: shellfish, seafood salads.

Reviews and Ratings

Heather Wall - CS; WSET Advanced rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

A pretty floral wine with white peach, citrus, pear and minrality dominate this renowned dry white wine from Italy. Made form 100% Cortese grapes in Piemonte. A refreshing tangy citrus finish make this a perfect choice for battered fish, shellfish with butter sauce or creamy pasta sauces. Serve well chilled.
Tasted: February 2015
The Italian wine region of Gavi is in the southeast part of Piedmont and features Cortese grape vines planted on hillsides in calcareous-marl soil that is the reason for the name “Le Marne.” This white wine is made 100% Cortese grapes. - Community Wine Reviews
