Wine from Gavi
Filter
Italian white wine is crafted in a portion of Piedmont called the Province of Alessandria. This white wine is made from a particular grape variety called Cortese that sits close to the town of Gavi. The region’s production style goes all the way back to 1876 and the wine was given the status of DOC in the early 1970’s. In the late 1990’s the Gavi wine was awarded DOCG status. Due to the change in status, Gavi wines can now only be produced in several towns. Among these are the towns of Gavi, Parodi, San Cristoforo, Tassarolo, and Bosio. Only several other towns in the list of Italian towns are permitted to craft the wine. The story of the Gavi wine goes back to around the 5th century where there was a princess called by the name of Gavia. The princess loved one of the guards and was not allowed to marry him. The couple eloped and got married, but her secret slipped. Her father, the king, was asked to forgive his daughter, and when she came back with her new husband, it is said the king gave them an entire town and named the wine created there in honor of the happy couple.

A deep and rich hue of golden straw gives the first clue that this is a serious Chardonnay. Aromas of pear, green apple, and lime peel jump out of the glass followed by more nuanced fragrances of orange blossom, ginger root, and brioche. The sensation on the palate casually demonstrates both broad depth and laser like focus. An assertive core of acid and saline minerality rests completely ensconced in rich flavors of pie crust, clotted cream, and burnt caramel. Drink now for fresh vibrance, or in ten years for wild complexity. This wine is a perfect white to be enjoyed year-round.
Review:
The 2021 MFN Blanc Chardonnay is very ripe in style with scents of banana chip, apple pie, jasmine, allspice and brown sugar. The full-bodied palate is packed with ripe, spicy fruits and plenty of refreshing acidity, and it finishes long with a satiny, mouth-coating texture. It's an old-school style reminiscent of Napa that fans of ripe, oaked Chardonnays will enjoy.

Luis XIV Vino Noble is a naturally sweet red wine, made from very late Monastrell harvests. All of its sugar and alcohol comes from the grape itself and has been subjected to a long aging in semi-new American oak barrels. In the mouth it is very intense, sweet without cloying, with aromas of stewed plums and a very long finish of spicy oak wood. RATING: Noble Alicante sweet wine
