Located in the heart of Gavi DOC, Villa Sparina was founded by Mario Moccagatta. The estate's first harvest was in 1974. The winery is currently run by Mario, along with his two sons. Head enologist Beppe Caviola, one of the foremost winemakers in Piemonte, has brought Gavi and Villa Sparina to new heights.
The consistently highly rated Villa Sparina Gavi is medium bodied, fresh, clean, agile and bright. It boasts flavors of floral, citrus, tropical fruit, tree fruits, minerals, wet stone, and a hint of white pepper. Perfect with fish, rice-dishes, or light Mediterranean fare.
