As well as wine, Piedmont is almost as famous for truffles – those elusive, delectable delights that have to be rooted out from the depths of the forest. Much the same might be be said of Olim Bauda – a secluded family estate that lies at the end of long drive off the busy Via Prata. The estate is run by siblings Dino, Diana and Gianni, all of whom have devoted themselves to creating fresh, expressive Barbera d’Asti and pure, scintillating Gavi in the most delicate, low-intervention way. Working organically in the vineyards since 2018 (certified organic 2022) Sustainable agricultural practices, following the rules for integrated farming which prohibit the use of herbicides. Rigorous green harvesting and bunch selection in the vineyards ensure that only perfectly ripe fruit is harvested.
Tasting Note: An elegant Gavi (100% Cortese) with a stunning floral notes and soft citrus fruits. A fresh and dry white wine, the crisp floral notes, with hints of underlying minerality lead through to a piercingly pure finish.
Food match: Asparagus risotto. Light cheeses, fish and chicken.
