“The historic estate of Fontanafredda conceals one or two little secrets – not least the hunting lodge to which its origins can be traced back to 1878 The property of the first King of Italy, it was not only a base for his hunting of the local game, but also for more, shall we say, earthy pursuits…
- Fontanafredda Gavi Di Gavi:
One of Italy”s most fashionable whites, it is noted for acute dryness and fresh, flinty acidity This is a bright straw-yellow wine with greenish highlights It has a full, delicate, elegant bouquet which brings flowers and fresh fruit to mind – mostly lemons, lilies of the valley and green apples Its palate is attractively young, dry, fresh and well-balanced.
- Pairing:
As an inviting aperitif, it whets the appetite in its pairings with hors-d”oeuvres and fish dishes It is perfect in summer, but there are no seasonal limitations to the serving of this delightful wine. ”
