The wine’s nose offers a delightful mix of peach, nectarine and lime with a hint of fresh flowers. In the mouth, the wine is light and crisply flavorful. Cheerful fruitiness is expressed in flavors of honeydew melon drizzled with fresh lime juice leading to a brisk, refreshing finish.

Piedmont may be home to the Barolo and Barbaresco red wine icons but it also produces some delicious, if lesser-known, whites, led by the crisp, fruity and refreshing wines from the Cortese di Gavi grape. Colloquially, the wine is just known as Gavi, a name that comes from the town that’s at the center of its production region in the southern hills of Piedmont, near the border with Liguria. San Matteo was founded in 1999 specifically to create premium Gavi wines with greater expression and character. The timing of the estate’s founding is less surprising when you learn that Gavi was given DOCG status, Italy’s highest appellation designation, in 1998. Legal safeguards of quality, lower yields and allowing bottling only within the production area were all important changes.
Gavi lovers will tell you they love the wine on its own but the San Matteo Gavi has the structure to stand up to a wide range of light- to medium-bodied fare—from shellfish and flaky white fish to salads, herbed pastas and light chicken, turkey or pork dishes.
Le Parodine is San Matteo’s top-end Gavi, made of a selection of its best grapes.
