Made from the Turbiana grape variety, it offers an enveloping aromatic profile, characterised by exotic notes of pineapple and grapefruit intertwined with hints of pear, apricot and white flowers, with a subtle mineral nuance of chalk. On the palate, it is taut and vibrant, with a \u003cstrong\u003emarked mineral freshness\u003c\/strong\u003e that brings balance to the sip. This Lugana stands out for its finesse, culminating in a \u003cstrong\u003elong and persistent finish\u003c\/strong\u003e, thanks also to slow fermentation and maturation in steel and cement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe soul of this wine lies in San Benedetto di Lugana, on the southern shore of Lake Garda. The grapes come from the \u003cstrong\u003eLe Creete estate\u003c\/strong\u003e, a vineyard situated on ancient glacial soils composed of clay and limestone sediments. The particular concentration of \u003cstrong\u003ewhite clay\u003c\/strong\u003e in the soil gives the wine its typical savouriness and a well-defined taste structure. The \u003cstrong\u003econstantly ventilated microclimate\u003c\/strong\u003e ensures the perfect health of the bunches, allowing for a wine with a clean and precise organoleptic profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe production process begins with careful manual harvesting, during which the bunches are selected and placed in small crates. This is followed by a \u003cstrong\u003egentle pressing\u003c\/strong\u003e of whole bunches for most of the harvest and natural settling of the must. Fermentation takes place slowly at a controlled temperature in steel tanks. To enrich its structure, \u003cstrong\u003eageing on fine lees\u003c\/strong\u003e continues for several months, during which the wine rests between steel and \u003cstrong\u003ecement vats\u003c\/strong\u003e, a choice that gives the sip harmony and expressive continuity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn south of Lake Garda, \u003cstrong\u003eLe Creete Lugana DOC\u003c\/strong\u003e embodies the vision of Ottella, a historic Veronese winery founded by the Montresor family in 1960.
