2021 Castellari Bergaglio "Fornaci" Gavi di Tassarolo
Product Details
Brand: Castellari Bergaglio
Wine Type: White Wine
Grape Varietal: Cortese
Country of Origin: Italy
Appellation/Region: Piedmont
Farming: Organic

100% organic Cortese from hillside vineyards in the Tassarolo region. Gavi di Tassarolo ‘Fornaci’ is a single vineyard wine named after a brick kiln (fornace) that used to stand in place of the vineyards, within the township of Tassarolo. Cortese grapes are soft pressed and fermented at a low temperature.  Although Cortese is grown all over the northwest, it was first recorded as a Piedmontese variety in 1659 and has long been favoured by the neighbouring port of Genoa to accompany the region’s locally caught seafood.  Gavi, like Soave, is a wine that takes its name from the region’s main village. The village, Gavi, is in southern Piedmont, bordering Liguria.

Tasting Notes

Classic, delicate floral and fruity bouquet of citrus, peach and green apple. The palate is dry and refreshing with a hint of bitter almond and can cellar well, developing toasty honeyed notes. A versatile dry white that is particularly well suited to seafood.

About Castellari Bergaglio

The Castellari Bergaglio estate is located right in the middle of this timeless landscape of natural beauty and tranquility with red clay soil, rich in iron, 200 meters (984 feet) above sea level. The estate has 30 acres (12 hectares) under vine and was founded in 1890. It is now in its fourth generation and is family run in the finest Italian fashion, careful to maintain what Marco Bergaglio (fourth generation – Mario Bergaglio and wife Vanda Castellari are from the third generation) calls “an ideal ratio between tradition and innovation.” The winery now runs on solar energy. This eco-friendly method is “our contribution to reducing CO2 emissions and safeguarding the planet,” says Marco.
