Extremely crushable with pear fruit, minerality and bright acidity. In a lovely 1 Liter oversized bottle.

In fact, the Cortese-based wines of nearby Gavi are among the most treasured whites of Northern Italy. We have discovered that adding a touch of Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc further sharpens and thereby elevates this wine. Fun fact: Cortese was first documented in 1614, when the Castle of Casale Monferrato documented the grape in its ledger. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Piedmont Guy","offers":[{"title":"1 Liter","offer_id":68159626936624,"sku":"D1 F1","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0783\/0647\/6336\/files\/ErcoleBiancoMonferratoD.O.C.2024.jpg?v=1759438229","url":"https:\/\/prizefighterbottleshop.com\/products\/ercole-bianco-monferrato-d-o-c-2025","provider":"Prizefighter Bottle Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
