Lugana Riserva DOC Fabio Contato 2020 Cà Maiol

The Lugana Fabio Contato di Cà Maiol was born in vineyards located in the municipality of Desenzano del Garda, in the province of Brescia. This wine takes its name from the eldest son of the founder Walter Contato and intends to represent the best qualitative expression of the company.

It is produced exclusively with Turbiana grapes, harvested and selected entirely by hand. After traditional fermentation in steel at a controlled temperature, the wine ages for 6 months in French oak barriques and for a further 3 months in the bottle before being placed on the market.

It has an intense straw yellow color with gold-olive green reflections. The nose opens with a large and complex bouquet, with hints of cedar and yellow melon, enriched by slightly spicy tones of cumin and ginger. Furthermore, the evolution of the aroma in the bouquet can lead to the development of fragrances of pearl barley, yellow peach and Marseille soap. On the palate it is soft and enveloping, in perfect balance between the acidic and savory components, with hints of yellow raspberry and saffron.

Perfect to accompany first courses with white meat sauces, foie gras and white truffles, this wine is ideal in combination with seasoned and slightly spicy cheeses.
