Collection: Cortez
Cortese is an Italian grape variety grown primarily in the Piedmont region of northern Italy. It is best known for being one of the most important grape varieties in the production of the popular Italian white wine Gavi.
The Cortese grapes are sensitive to ripening and require a special pear shape to achieve the best quality. They thrive best in a cool climate with evenly moist soil.
Wines made with Cortese grapes are known for their fresh and fruity taste, with notes of grass, citrus and mineral sensations. They are often dry and have a good acidity, making them suitable for pairing with a variety of dishes.
Cortese grapes play an important role in Italian wine production, and Gavi wines are highly sought after by wine lovers looking for high quality and authentic Italian style.
