Tasting: Batasiolo Gavi 2014

Name: Batasiolo Gavi 2014
Variety: Cortese
Region: Piemonte
Country: Italy 
Year: 2014
Price: $6.95 at Vintage Cellar, Regular $18

Shop Review: Pale straw yellow color with greenish reflections, clear and bright. The nose is fresh and floral, with good intensity and persistence. In the mouth it is dry and pleasantly cool. The final sensation reminiscent of almonds is typical of the appellation.

My Review: For this wine I got a strong grape juice smell, this might seem obvious but it was more like a smell you may expect from a Welch's white grape juice. I also got some berries and sweet notes of citrus on the end of the aromas. For taste this wine was tart and contained full lemon and lime citrus notes along with a finish of almond which was nice to tone the wine down in the end. 
This wine was not tasted with food.
