2018 Beni di Batasiolo Granee Gavi del Comune di Gavi DOCG

Beni di Batasiolo is a name synonymous with excellence and tradition in the heart of Italy’s esteemed Piedmont region. Since 1978, the Dogliani family has passionately tended to over 320 acres of prime vineyard land, allowing nature’s bounty to guide the creation of their exceptional wines. 

The Dogliani family's journey in the Langhe district spans five generations, each dedicated to mastering the art of winemaking. The acquisition of the historic Kiola estate in 1978 marked a new era, expanding their holdings to nine prestigious estates. Today, Beni di Batasiolo encompasses some of the most coveted vineyards in Barolo, including the renowned crus: Cerequio, Bussia, Brunate, Briccolina, and Boscareto.

These prized sites, designated as Menzioni Geografiche Aggiuntive (MGA), are celebrated for producing wines of unparalleled elegance and longevity. Batasiolo’s dedication to excellence has not gone unnoticed. Their wines have earned a place on Wine Spectator’s Top 100 list six times to date.

100% Cortese. Pale straw yellow in color, clear and bright, with greenish tinges. Fresh and floral nose, good intensity and persistence. In the mouth, it is dry and pleasantly fresh with typical final sensation reminiscent of almonds. Perfect accompaniment for appetizers, pasta and delicate risottos, fish and white meat main courses. Pairs pleasantly with vegetable-based recipes. Excellent as an aperitif.

Both smoky and fresh, this Gavi delivers a wealth of guava, pomelo, gooseberries and grapefruit, as well as fresh-clove and wet-stone character. Full-bodied and waxy on the palate, which has a textured core of green fruit. Fleshy yet elegant on the finish. Drink now. ~91 James Suckling
