Tasting Notes

This wine is a pale yellow in colour with a concentrated but fresh perfume of white flowers, peaches, spice and candied fruits. The `I Frati` has excellent depth and balance and a crisp, saline finish.

The Producer

The Dal Cero family has transformed their Ca’ dei Frati property, situated on the southern shores of Lake Garda, into a model Italian estate over the past two decades. Back in 1987, they had 12 hectares of vineyard but now, following the purchase of a large area of prime vineyard sites in 2008, they have over 200 hectares. This increase in quantity has been matched by an increase in quality, and today they remain the best producer in Lugana.

Vinification

The grapes were picked by hand and carefully selected. Once at the winery, they were gently pressed using a pneumatic press. The must was fermented in temperature controlled stainless-steel tanks to preserve its natural fresh fruit character. The wine was then matured on its lees in 500 litre stainless-steel tanks for six months, before spending a further two months ageing in bottle before release.
