Italy : Veneto : Lugana Turbiano (Trebbiano di Lugana) MEDIUM-BODIED, RICH, TEXTURED, PINEAPPLE & CITRUS, USED OAK Warm pineapple and brights grapefruit citrus notes open the bouquet on this versatile quaffer. Hefty yet balanced, each of its components working in sync. Juicy fruit on the palate and silky textures. Underlying acidity is lingering, and finishes clean.

The single-vineyard 2019 Lugana Le Creete is an understated and feminine beauty, blending subtle hints of candied citrus with wild herbs, nectarine and flowery undergrowth. It’s silky, almost oily in texture, contrasted by brisk acids and lime-infused orchard fruits. This tapers off cheek-puckering, tart and almost salty, yet it leaves a lasting, almost tropical impression that I find quite pleasurable. (Eric Guido, Vinous, February 2021)
