Tonight's wine is a lovely white from the Piedmont region of Italy.
CASTELLARI BERGAGLIO SALLUVII GAVI 2009 - Piedmont, Italy (#185033) - $13.95
Tasting Note:
This Gavi has fresh lime/citrus, apple, pear aromas. All the aromas follow through on the palate. Crisp. Some oak ageing evident. Dry style that is very similar to a Chardonnay. First time trying a Gavi and I wouldn't hesitate to try another in the future.
Stay tuned for my next Vintage Wine Picks which will be published this Saturday.

Day 2 of this wine and some sweet honey notes have come to the forefront. Wow! Wasn't expecting this!
