Monday, October 30, 2023 - Impulse Purchase @ Costco
12.5% abv - $15
Varietal: Cortese
Barrel shaped bottle. As Flickwines notes, bottle is amber tinted.

Served @10c/50f with Baked Salmon.

Having tried 'Gavi di Gavi' at my favorite Italian Restaurant, I was happy to find it at Costco.

Pale Yellow in the glass. Citrus and Lemon Blossoms on the nose. Initial taste seems deceptively bland on the palate, but fragrance and flavors become more prominent as the temperature warms to 55-60f. Tart acidity and nuances of pear, peach, and green apple come through in mid-palate, along with some salinity, finally ending in a nice tart, lingering finish.
