LUGANA 'LE CREETE' OTTELLA 2023 DESCRIPTION

"Le Creete" Lugana is a white wine with enveloping aromas, striking on the palate for refinement, yet without sacrificing character and personality. A rich label, with an enterprising sip, always very satisfying, in which Trebbiano di Lugana is the protagonist. A grape particularly dear to the Ottella winery, a production reality always careful to give life to balanced labels, where nothing is out of place. Just like this "Le Creete," a wine that goes well with first and second courses where fish is the protagonist.

This Lugana "Le Creete" is made from the grapes of Trebbiano di Lugana, which has always been widely cultivated in the areas surrounding Peschiera del Garda. The grapes are grown by Ottella according to the guyot method within the "Le Creete" vineyard, characterized by a subsoil in which the presence of white clay abounds. The berries, once selected and harvested, are pressed by decanting naturally, then fermenting alcoholically in steel tanks. This is followed by aging, also carried out in steel for a period of between 6 and 8 months, at the end of which the wine is ready to be bottled.

"Le Creete" is a Lugana with a decisive and lively color, recalling the shade of straw yellow. The aromas that develop on the nose are mainly fruity, and are enriched on the finish, with mineral nuances. On the palate it is light-bodied, harmonious, drinkable and flowing, with a sip characterized by a fresh and savory taste, very incentive. This is a label that embodies the spirit and motto that guides the Ottella winery at every stage of the production chain, which makes its own the words of the writer and poet Goethe, according to whom "the best things are achieved only with the utmost passion."
