Description

La Scolca is a renowned producer of Gavi di Gavi, a white wine made from the Cortese grape variety. The winery has a long history, dating back to the early 1900s when the founder, Giuseppe Soldati, began cultivating grapes in the Piedmont region of Italy. Today, La Scolca is run by the fifth generation of the Soldati family and is known for producing some of the finest Gavi di Gavi wines in the world.

The Gavi di Gavi White Label is one of La Scolca's most popular wines. It is made from 100% Cortese grapes grown in the estate's vineyards in the heart of the Gavi DOCG appellation. The wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures to preserve the delicate aromas and flavors of the grapes.

The Gavi di Gavi White Label is a pale straw color with greenish highlights. On the nose, it has intense aromas of white flowers, citrus fruits, and a hint of minerality. On the palate, it is dry, crisp, and refreshing, with flavors of lemon, green apple, and a touch of almond. The wine has a long, clean finish that leaves a pleasant aftertaste.

La Scolca's Gavi di Gavi White Label is a perfect match for seafood, shellfish, and light pasta dishes. It is also an excellent aperitif wine, best served chilled at around 8-10°C. The wine has a moderate alcohol content of 12.5%, making it a great choice for those who prefer lighter, more refreshing wines.

Overall, La Scolca's Gavi di Gavi White Label is a classic example of the Gavi di Gavi style. It is a wine that showcases the unique characteristics of the Cortese grape and the terroir of the Gavi DOCG appellation. With its elegant aromas, crisp acidity, and refreshing flavors, it is no wonder that this wine is so highly regarded by wine lovers and critics alike.

Tasting notes

La Scola was the first winery established in Gavi in 1919. The vineyard is planted on steep slopes 50km from the sea. These Cortese vines are some of the oldest in Piedmont and produce complex wines. La Scolca White Label is the 'everyday' alternative to the legendary Black Label wine produced by the Domaine.

Sourced from younger vines this wine still displays similar richness and complexity to its elder brother. Light straw in colour with green undertones, Zesty lemon aromas with some almond and stone fruit notes. Crisp, lively, mineral character with sharp acidity and a refreshing, lasting finish.
