Fontanassa Gavi hails from the prestigious Gavi DOCG in Piemonte, where the Cortese grape thrives in the region’s unique terroir. The Fontanassa estate has long been a beacon of quality, carefully stewarded by a family dedicated to producing wines that embody the essence of this renowned area.
The vineyards are nestled on the hillsides of Gavi, where well-draining soils and a climate influenced by both the Alps and the Mediterranean allow for balanced grape ripening. The Cortese vines benefit from the ideal combination of sunlight and cool breezes, creating a wine that is fresh, crisp, and beautifully expressive.
This Gavi showcases the natural elegance of the Cortese grape. It is a wine with bright, citrusy notes of lemon and green apple, intertwined with subtle floral hints that enhance its refreshing profile. A mineral backbone gives the wine depth and complexity, while its clean, crisp acidity makes it wonderfully refreshing.

Delivery Times
We will look to have your delivery with you within 3 working days of receiving the order but please ask if you need it by a certain date and we'll do our best.
Vintages
We will endeavour to deliver vintages as advertised but they often change faster than we can update (we're pretty slow). So, again, it may be wise to confirm before ordering if you're in need of something particular. Please note: Some bottle images may not show the current vintage.
Surcharges
Surcharges often apply to deliveries outside mainland England so wise to confirm before you order. Indeed, Northern Ireland is beyond us unless shipping charges agreed beforehand.
