La Raia · Gavi DOCG · Piedmont, Italy · 2025
At 400 metres above sea level in the hills of Gavi, where the calcareous clay soils of Piedmont meet the cool breezes of the Ligurian Apennines, La Raia farms its Cortese vines with an unwavering commitment to biodynamic principles — no chemicals, no shortcuts, just a sincere and dynamic balance between land and people. The result is a Gavi of rare purity and precision, one that speaks clearly of its place.
The nose is delicate and mineral, with notes of white peach, pear, citrus blossom, and white flowers underpinned by a fine, stony minerality. On the palate it is lively and beautifully balanced — fresh acidity giving the wine both energy and length, with a characteristic hint of almond on the finish that is the hallmark of great Cortese.

Producer Notes
The Gavi which interprets the tradition of the terroir and identifies the typical characteristics of the Cortese vine variery from which it originates.
Color is straw yellow, with slight greenish hints. Offers a particularly fine mineral feeling and notes of fruit and white flowers. Mouthfeel is lively, balanced, with a fresh acidity, which increases its persistance and favours its drinkability. A slight almondish finish.
Excellent as aperitif, paired with hors d’oeuvres and fish ragú or vegetable first courses. It is the perfect match also for seafood, white meat and fresh young cheese..
The vineyard soil at La Raia is calcareous and clayish, it extends at approxima- tely 400 metres above sea level with a south-east-west exposure. A crown of vineyards distributed around the cellar, with an average density of 4500 vines per hectare. According to the farm’s core philosophy that complies with the biodyna- mic principles, the vines are farmed without any use of chemicals.
Cortese grapes for Gavi production benefit of the typical microclimate of our area, which highly concentrates its activation within the vineyards located around the cellar. The grapes are healthy and present a good sugar rate and a balanced acidity; this allows us to produce a very pleasant and easy to drink white wine.
