La Raia’s Vigna Madonnina is a Gavi Riserva made from Cortese, offering a more distinctive expression of this well-known Piedmontese white. The estate is one of Italy’s comparatively few Demeter-certified producers, bringing a biodynamic perspective to a wine from a region celebrated for its Cortese-based whites.
Tasting Notes
The tasting note provided is for the 2017 vintage, so it should be read as a reference to the wine’s style rather than a confirmed note for 2022. It describes a pale, fresh Gavi with aromas of citrus, Golden Delicious apple, yellow melon and stone fruit. On the palate, juicy fruit meets moderate but present acidity, while a notably mineral, savoury character grows more expressive with air.
Production
La Raia is a Demeter-certified biodynamic estate in the Gavi area of Piedmont. Specific details about the 2022 harvest, vineyard conditions and vinification were not provided.
Food & Serving
A natural match for Italian antipasti, this Gavi can also accompany seafood, fresh cheeses and light vegetable dishes. Serve well chilled, around 8–10°C; there is no need to decant, though a little time in the glass can allow its mineral character to emerge.
Producer
Società Agricola La Raia s.s. is based in the Gavi region of Alessandria, Piedmont. Its Demeter certification distinguishes it among Italy’s relatively small number of biodynamic producers. Further details about the estate’s history and specific achievements were not provided.
