Cellar for up to 5 years. Serve chilled.
Bursting with enticing citrus and honeysuckle notes, this classic Gavi comes from the oldest La Raia vineyard which sits at 400 metres above sea level on well-draining sandy soils. These conditions are ideal for the Cortese grape, helping to limit excessive vegetation and showcase the fresh and elegant nature of the variety. To maintain quality the grapes are picked by hand and fermented in stainless steel tanks using wild yeasts. The young wine is then left to age on the lees for 20 months to add complexity and a rich, creamy texture.
This stunning Gavi is crafted by the Rossi Cairo family who purchased the La Raia estate in the heart of Gavi’s hills in 2003. Since taking over the family have converted the vineyards to biodynamic agriculture and avoid using any chemical herbicides or pesticides in order to protect the local ecosystem.
In 2007 the estate was Demeter-certified and this strong commitment to working in harmony with nature helps the family to create top quality wines from indigenous grape varieties. Overseeing the estate’s winemaking is Piero Ballario who is known as one of the region’s top consultants for his work with many small wineries in the Langhe and other parts of Italy.

overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
