Cellar for up to 3 years. Serve chilled. La Scolca has been run by the same family since 1917 when the great-grandfather of current owner Giorgio Soldato first bought the property. Working alongside Giorgio is his daughter, Chiara Soldati, who represents the fifth generation of the family to make wine here. Today La Scolca has a cult following around the globe thanks to the winery’s classic Gavi wines made from the local Cortese grape which represent the very best of the region. Chiara has recently expanded La Scolca’s repertoire to include exciting, modern wines like this brand-new white wine which is named after her mother, Luisa. Made exclusively from estate-grown fruit, this cuvee is composed of Sauvignon Blanc and indigenous Piedmontese white grape varieties. The must is fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve the natural character and freshness of the grapes. The delicate nose is bursting with fresh lemon zest, lime, grapefruit and aromatic jasmine and honeysuckle notes while the first sip reveals a crisp freshness, light body and very clean finish. The elegant flavour profile and citrusy aromas make this a great wine to enjoy as a refreshing aperitif or to enjoy alongside sushi, seafood, grilled fish, leafy salads or even spicy Asian curries and noodle dishes.
