The white grape that makes the dry and delicate Gavi (and by extension Gavi di Gavi), notable for a hint of citrus and green-apple acidity. Native to the Piedmont region, currently there aren't really any 'serious' plantings outside northern Italy. It typically produces wines that are pale lemon-white in colour, possess a fine fragrance and are minerally and dry on the palate. The best examples can show more body and develop an intense honeyed richness with medium term ageing.

Quality is consistent. Deeper bouquet and flavor than most Cali Zins. The Earth tones come thru beautifully about two years from Vintage. Wonderful
Red to contemplate on its own or with good food.
chianti at a good price- good value for everyday drinking
Not quite in same class as recent chianti from Wine Direct released earlier this year-but also half the price. Excellent value for a red wine: you don't have to worry about finding a superior food to match at this excellent price.
Hard pushed to find a NZ red at this price/quality ratio!
