Lugana DOC Le Creete – Trebbiano di Lugana
Couldn't load pickup availability
This elegant white wine owes its unique personality to the mineral-rich white clay soils of San Benedetto di Lugana and a meticulous winemaking process. Hand-harvested grapes from the prized Le Creete vineyard are delicately pressed—either whole cluster or gently destemmed—to preserve the finest aromas. The wine undergoes slow, temperature-controlled fermentation and matures for 6 to 8 months on fine lees, resulting in remarkable complexity and depth.
Its golden straw-yellow color hints at the richness within. On the nose, exotic aromas of pineapple and grapefruit unfold, balanced by distinct mineral undertones. The palate is refined and harmonious, offering richness without heaviness, persistence without sharpness—a true expression of the Lugana terroir.
This wine is perfect for those seeking both finesse and flavor, and is particularly suited for pairing with both seafood and aged cheeses. Ideal for elegant dinners or relaxing aperitifs, Le Creete showcases the best of Northern Italy’s white wine tradition.
