As a result, in the 2018 Gavi Le Marne you get balanced aromas of citrus, lemongrass, white flower and dusty mineral. No malolactic fermentation is performed because that process would only dampen the natural floral intensity of the grape. Drink this light and crisp white wine with a salade Ni?oise.
