Paul Weil

This Lugana is a “riserva”, the opposite of the “fresh” type. Riservas are meant to be aged a bit, much like a high-end Riesling, and are aimed at the German wine market. This is a great example of the craft, medium bodied like a big Chardonnay, but with complex lemon and lime citric flavors like a New Zealand SB. The tartness of the finish allows it to cut through the oils in food to cleanse the palate. I am not accustomed to aging white wines, but I almost wish that I had allowed this to lay down for another year or so.
