Cà dei Frati I Frati Lugana DOC – Cà dei Frati (Italy, Lombardy)
The Dal Cero family cultivates their vineyards on the calcareous-clay soils characteristic of the area south of Sirmione. Here grows the indigenous Turbiana grape variety, genetically closely related to Trebbiano di Soave, but developing a unique, deeper structure in the glass. It draws a cool tension from the mineral-rich subsoil and benefits enormously from the moderating influence of Lake Garda. In the glass, the I Frati displays distinct notes of white blossoms and ripe apricot, underpinned by a delicate, almost cool balsamic note and a subtle almond nuance in the background. On the palate, a lively, yet never sharp, acidity carries the wine precisely through to the finish. The texture is full-bodied, yet remains completely light. Those who forget a few bottles from this package in their cellar will be rewarded: with some bottle aging, spicy notes and candied fruit emerge, highlighting the enormous aging potential of these vineyards.

This wine pairs well with: grilled Lake Constance whitefish with herb butter, a creamy risotto with pike-perch and lemon, mild goat cheese on toasted country bread, or classic pasta with fresh seafood and a drizzle of good olive oil. The recommended serving temperature is 10 to 12 °C , and the ideal drinking window extends until 2028.

With these twelve bottles, you're not just getting a piece
