Gavi

Wines

From the cool, limestone hills of Gavi comes a white wine that doesn’t shout for attention—it earns it quietly, glass by glass. This Cortese from Francesco Rinaldi is all about restraint and clarity: citrus, green almond, white flowers, and that unmistakable stony snap that only comes from well-tended Piedmontese slopes.

It is a wine made for the table, not the tasting note—best poured alongside a plate of briny seafood, simple antipasti, or anything that benefits from a clean, honest white with backbone and nerve. In a world of excess, it is a reminder that understatement, done properly, is its own kind of luxury.
