Fontanafredda Gavi Comune di Gavi Cortem 2025

Fontanafredda Cortem is a fresh and elegant Gavi di Gavi made from Cortese, Piedmont’s native white grape. Its name, derived from the Provençal “Cortes,” evokes courtly culture, refinement and authority—qualities reflected in the wine’s poised, graceful style and connection to the long history of Cortese in the region.

Tasting Notes
Bright straw-yellow in appearance, this Gavi presents a delicate, inviting nose with aromas of white flowers, fresh citrus and crisp orchard fruit. On the palate, it is dry and refreshing, combining lively acidity with subtle mineral notes and a clean, elegant finish. It is best enjoyed in its youth, when its freshness and aromatic precision are at their most expressive.

Production
Produced in the Comune di Gavi in Piedmont from Cortese, the grape traditionally associated with the area’s distinctive white wines. The region’s hilly environment and temperate climate support wines marked by freshness and finesse. The precise harvesting and vinification details for the 2025 vintage are not specified, but the style is centred on preserving Cortese’s natural acidity, floral character and mineral freshness.

Food & Serving
Serve well chilled at approximately 8–10°C. Cortem is a natural match for seafood, shellfish, sushi, fresh salads and delicate pasta dishes, while its crisp profile also complements grilled vegetables, fresh cheeses and light antipasti. Decanting is not necessary; serve shortly after opening, or allow a few minutes in the glass for the aromas to unfold.
