Riva de la Rosa Gavi DOCG is crafted from the Cortese grape cultivated in the hills of Terre del Gavi nestled amidst the Apennine Mountains in the southeastern part of the Alessandria province. This picturesque region straddles the border between Monferrato and Liguria and is known for its rich red clay marl soils. The vineyards, perched at altitudes ranging from 150 to 450 meters above sea level, benefit from the refreshing breezes off the nearby Ligurian coast and abundant sunlight. These natural elements greatly influence the microclimate, creating an ideal environment for cultivating exceptional Gavi DOCG vineyards. To make their Gavi, they soft crush the grapes followed by a controlled fermentation at 62-65˚ F in stainless steel tanks. This unique combination of microclimate and clay marl soil creates a balanced wine, offering expressive floral and vibrant citrus notes in its aroma.
