La Scolca is a renowned wine producer located in the Piedmont region of Italy. The winery has a rich history dating back to the early 1900s when the founder, Giuseppe Gavioli, began producing wine from the Cortese grape variety. Today, La Scolca is still family-owned and operated, with the fifth generation of the family now at the helm.

The winery is best known for its Gavi di Gavi, a white wine made from 100% Cortese grapes. The wine is produced using traditional methods, with the grapes hand-harvested and carefully selected before being gently pressed. The resulting juice is then fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature to preserve the delicate aromas and flavors of the grapes.

La Scolca's Gavi di Gavi is a crisp, refreshing wine with a bright acidity and notes of citrus, green apple, and white flowers. It is a perfect pairing for seafood, salads, and light pasta dishes.

In addition to its Gavi di Gavi, La Scolca also produces a range of other white wines, including a sparkling wine made from Cortese grapes and a Chardonnay-based wine aged in oak barrels.

Overall, La Scolca is a producer that is highly regarded for its commitment to quality and tradition. Its wines are a true reflection of the terroir of the Piedmont region, and they are sure to delight any wine lover looking for a taste of Italy.
