Here they are sorted and carefully broken open. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks and small wood at controlled temperatures. Fermentation is followed by aging on the fine lees for a few months before the wine is finally bottled. After the completion of the wine, the Gavi di Gavi is carefully harmonized.

Food recommendation :is best enjoyed well chilled at 8 – 10°C. It’s perfect as an accompaniment to chickpea curry, lemon chili chicken with bulgur, or leek tortilla.
