Azienda Citari Conchiglia Lugana 2022 Lugana DOC
The Lugana Cochiglia comes from a single vineyard planted with 100% Turbiana di Lugana, 25 year old vines, on clay and limestone, rich in mineral salts and fossil shells - thus the name
The Citari Estate sits amongst the rolling hill just south of Lake Garda and is run by brother and sister Maria Giovanna and Francesco Mascini. The Lugana Cochiglia comes from a single vineyard planted with 100% Turbiana di Lugana, 25 year old vines, on clay and limestone, rich in mineral salts and fossil shells - thus the name. The grapes are hand harvested into small crates with several passes through the vines and then fermented in stainless steel and left for 6 months on its lees for extra depth of flavour. This is very attractive with ripe apple and peach notes with a saline mineral freshness and lots of length.
