Turbiana (Trebbiano di Lugana).

Production area

Group 12 Copy 2

San Benedetto di Lugana, located in the southern area of Lake Garda. The grapes come from our own vineyard, Le Creete, 12 hectares in the heart of Lugana, marked by a high white clay content.

Harvest

Group 12 Copy 2

From the end of September until late October. The harvest and bunch selection are done strictly by hand in small 17 Kg cases.

Winemaking

Group 12 Copy 2

Gentle, soft crushing of whole bunches for most of our production, while the rest is lightly destemmed by oscillation. Then follows a strict winemaking process: racking off the lees by natural settling, slow fermentation at a controlled temperature (14°/18°C); ageing for 6-8 months on fine lees.

Tasting notes

Group 12 Copy 2

Intense golden yellow. Pervasive on the nose with immediate exotic hints of pineapple and notes of grapefruit. It unfolds pleasantly with a remarkable mineral sensation. It is a wine with character and great aromatic elegance. Taste expectations are satisfied by its richness, consistency and balance.
