The single-vineyard 2019 Lugana Le Creete is an understated and feminine beauty, blending subtle hints of candied citrus with wild herbs, nectarine and flowery undergrowth. It’s silky, almost oily in texture, contrasted by brisk acids and lime-infused orchard fruits. This tapers off cheek-puckering, tart and almost salty, yet it leaves a lasting, almost tropical impression that I find quite pleasurable. (Eric Guido, Vinous, February 2021)

2013. One of my favourite Luganas. White floral aromatics on the nose, backed up by excellent acidity and mineral backbone on the palate. Delicious with seafood or as a lunch wine.

Super fresh, almost tastes like a juicy Sancerre but with more tropical and stone fruit. Delish.

Really nice and flinty, some buttery flavors. But lots of grassy notes Sauvignon Blanc -like.
