The wine region of Lugana
DOC straddling Lombardy and Veneto south of Lake Garda, benchmark saline, structured whites. Native Turbiana (Trebbiano di Lugana) as the sole grape: lively whites with signature notes of fresh almond, citrus, white apple, white flowers and a saline iodine mineral touch, taut and long palate — with unsuspected ageing potential. Still, oak-aged Superiore, ample Riserva and Spumante versions. Rich clay-limestone soils, ~1,800 ha.
The wine region of Lombardia
Three poles. Franciacorta DOCG, Italy's answer to Champagne: elegant brioche traditional-method sparklers (Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc), fine bubble and mineral profile. Alpine Valtellina: Nebbiolo (alias Chiavennasca) with fine tannins and red fruits, powerful Sforzato passito. Oltrepò Pavese: fresh Pinot Noir and fruity-sparkling Bonarda.
The word of the wine: Young
A very relative term that can designate a wine of the year that is already at its optimum, as well as a wine that has passed its first year but has not yet developed all its qualities.
