Lugana DOC Brolettino 2023 Ca' dei Frati

The Lugana Brolettino of Ca 'dei Frati is born in vineyards located on the southern shore of Lake Garda, in Lombardy, in an area capable of giving wines with excellent structure and great ageing potential.

It is produced exclusively with Turbiana grapes, a large native grape variety, harvested when fully ripe in mid-October. The vinification begins in steel and is concluded in barrique, then the wine ages in barrique for a period of 10 months, followed by a further 3 months in bottle.

It has a straw yellow colour with elegant golden reflections. The nose highlights pleasant hints of ripe fruit, including notes of peaches and yellow apples, aromas of fleshy roses and fresh and balsamic nuances. On the palate it surprises with a firm and full entrance, while maintaining a great freshness thanks to a balanced acidity. Overall it is an elegant and savoury wine with a delicate and persistent aftertaste.

Perfect to accompany legume soups and first courses with white sauces, it is ideal in combination with white meats, medium-aged cheeses, fish and shellfish.
