Drink it now or cellar for up to 5 years. Serve chilled.

Ca ‘Lojera is one of the key wineries in the Lugana appellation thanks to Ambra and Franco Tiraboschi who founded the estate in the early 1990s in Sirmione. They soon transformed the property from a fruit and vegetable farm into a high end winery with 20 hectares of vines planted close to Lake Garda and the nearby hills of Ponti sul Mincio.

Their Lugana Superiore is made from the classic Trebbiano di Lugana or Turbiana grape which is thought to be the same vine genetically as Verdicchio delle Marche. The Ca ‘Lojera vines sit on exceptional white clay soils which help give a distinctive freshness and elegance to the finished wine.

Once in the winery the grapes are carefully pressed and then fermented in neutral wooden barrels with regular lees stirring. The young wine is then left to mature in oak barrels for 24 months, adding enticing notes of spice, toast and vanilla to the complex flavour profile. Expect plenty of delicate citrus, white flower, and mineral notes along with a bright streak of acidity and a pure, clean finish. Serve as a refreshing aperitif or an accompaniment to lake fish, soft cheeses, or spicy Asian dishes.
