Sauvignon does well in Piedmont. Or so it seems when tasting this interesting white wine from Marchesi di Grésy. It is made from pure Sauvignon grapes from the company's vineyards in the Cuneo area. A fresh and intense wine. Perfect for an aperitif with friends or a special dinner, perhaps with some pleasantly spicy dishes. In fact, it is not lacking in material and it is not easy to put it in a difficult position. Super-traditional vinification in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks and maturation on its fine lees for no less than four months. The result is a wine characterized by a beautiful straw yellow colour, still furrowed by greenish reflections. On the nose the most typical notes of the varietal stand out, with tomato leaf and freshly cut grass. In the background, however, there are also evident flavours of ripe fruit such as peach, grapefruit and lychee. In the mouth it is pleasantly sapid, well structured and pleasantly complex. Great is its ageing potential. So basically, it's good today but can safely rest a few more years in the cellar. Two or three years of waiting will only make it even more interesting.
