Cellar for up to 4 years. Serve chilled.

The history of Ca dei Frati dates back at least as far as 1782 with the modern day winery established here in 1939 by Felice Dal Cero on the southerly shores of Lake Garda. The same family still runs the winery today and in recent years they have focused on revitalising and expanding the property. The size of the property has grown from 12 hectares of vineyards back in 1987 to over 160 hectares today. Quality has also increased significantly, and Ca dei Frati is now considered Lugana’s finest producer.

This characterful white wine is made from the local Turbiana grape which is virtually unknown outside of its Lake Garda homeland. It is reputed to be related to the famous Verdicchio variety and tends to produce attractive white wines with hints of tropical fruit and floral notes.

In the winery the must is fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve freshness and aromatics. The young wine is then aged on the lees for six months to add extra complexity and texture. The result is a vibrant, lively wine with enticing honeysuckle, pineapple and citrus notes and a very clean and pure finish. A great wine to serve as an aperitif or an accompaniment to fish, seafood or summer salads.
