Clementina Cossetti is the fourth-generation winemaker at the 30-hectare San Colombano estate in the heart of Asti, where her family has been farming for well over a century. It was in 1891 that Giovanni Cossetti first built a winery, and his son Clemente began achieving wider renown for their wines in the early years of the twentieth century.
Their Gavi di Gavi is straw yellow colour with green tint. Fresh, persistent aroma with hints of floral and fresh fruit. Pleasantly dry, crisp and harmonious.
Vines are on average 30-years-old and yields are kept low to ensure concentration of flavour. The grapes are picked, softly pressed and fermented in temperature controlled steel tanks for freshness.
