Gavi is white wine made from the Cortese grape. It tends to be on the crisp side, ranging from decidedly tart to round with citrus overtones; though some will work as an aperitif many are food wines that will give their best at table. Fish comes to mind, as does Ligurian vegetarian cuisine, ravioli and such with vegetable/cheese stuffings, and pesto sauce. It will also go well with omelets and frittate, and some of the sweeter Gavis will work nicely with cheeses, while the fuller ones will go well with white meats. In short, it’s a versatile wine. Here are the wines that impressed me from the current vintage, 2008.
