Drink it now. No need to decant it.

Located near Lake Garda, the Ca 'Lojera estate extends over a total of 20 hectares: here the land is flat and characterized by the richness of clay, a fundamental component for the cultivation of Trebbiano di Lugana, the main vine of this area. The dialectal name, literally “House of the Wolves”, refers to the legend according to which the black merchants of the north used the houses on the lakeside as a hiding place for smuggled goods, defended by packs of wolves.

Ca 'Lojera produces about 160,000 bottles a year, of which Lugana is their flagship wine. Vinified only in steel, this wine is characterized by the unmistakable flavor that is the trademark of Ca 'Lojera and which makes it the perfect choice for both an aperitif and the entire meal.

Lugana has a bright straw yellow color with green-gold streaks. The nose has a fruity opening of cedar peel, white melon and grapefruit, then sage, wisteria and lavender, with marine and brackish hints. It is agile and snappy in the mouth. It pierces the palate with freshness and flavor without lacking a pleasant structure. The finish is slightly salty with good persistence. It is perfect as an aperitif with cold seafood appetizers or vegetable-based first courses, but it is an absolute must with gratin sardines.
