Ca dei Frati Lugana 'Brolettino'
2015 Lugana DOC 750ml
Description
Lugana, or Trebbiano di Lugana, is a synonym for Verdicchio. It is a full-bodied and powerful wine with an immense capacity to age.
Fermentation is initiated in stainless steel and then completed in barriques (70% 2nd passage, 30% new). The secondary malolactic fermentation is fulfilled here also. Maturation takes place for 10 months in barriques followed by 3 months in bottle.
An attractive, clear and concentrated nose of apricot and damson with well-integrated new oak and vanilla. A juicy peach and apple palate supported by a fresh swath of acidity and an elegant finish of aromatic herbs and balsam.
