Sparkling Classic Method Brut of Lugana Zenato 2018

The Brut di Lugana signed by Zenato is a Classic Method Spumante that pays homage to a particularly representative grape variety of the wine scene surrounding Lake Garda, Trebbiano di Lugana. It is a grape that the winery likes to present with different labels, and which in this case is tinged with an interesting perlage, a prelude to a fresh and flowing drink . A bottle which, thanks to the 24-month refinement, expresses itself with the right amount of personality.

This Spumante Metodo Classico Brut di Lugana comes from the pure use of a vine particularly dear to the Zenato winery, the Trebbiano di Lugana. The vines of this variety, which are around 40 years old, grow with the guyot system, at a height of between 70 and 80 meters above sea level. The grapes, carefully selected during the harvest phase to guarantee only the best of the terroir of origin, are softly pressed and then fermented in steel at a controlled temperature. The refermentation takes place, following the production principles of the Classic Method, in the bottle, where the wine remains to refine on the lees for 24 months . At the end of this period we proceed with the operations of disgorgement, dosage and bottling.

The Spumante Metodo Classico Brut di Lugana wine made by Zenato announces itself to the eye with a light straw colour, not too intense, crossed by light golden flashes in the rim; the perlage is fine-grained and persistent. The aromas that envelop the nose develop on fruity and floral notes, embellished with touches that recall dry pastries and yeasts. In the mouth it is joyful and lively , with a dynamic sip of excellent workmanship, embellished by a pleasant freshness. A label that reveals how the cellar is a master in declining the Trebbiano di Lugana grape, knowing how to make the most of it even in the form of bubbles.
