Description

Tommasi Le Fornaci Lugana 2022

Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Turbiana from owned vineyards in Desenzano del Garda

Taste Profile: Intense and brilliant yellow on the nose, it is fruity and fragrant, with notes of tropical fruit and grapefruit. The taste is dry and harmonious and presents an elegant freshness of taste. It is intense and persistent in the savory, mineral finish with the typical hint of almond.

Winemaking Process: Lugana Le Fornaci is obtained from a careful harvest of the grapes. This is followed by slow fermentation at a controlled temperature (14°/18°) and racking for natural sedimentation. Aging for approximately 3 months on lees and fine yeasts followed by maturation in steel.

Lush & Tropical Whites

Succulent stonefruit with a citrus backbone characterises these wines. Typically, they have notes of tropical fruit, and come from warmer climates. A touch of oak during the winemaking process also helps to give some softness to the wine.

Expect notes of peach, apricot, pineapples, melon & a buttery texture
