Nunzio Ghiraldi Lugana "Il Grucione" DOC
Nunzio Ghiraldi grows Trebbiano di Lugana near Lake Garda. Trebbiano is often associated with lower quality, table wines. However, this strain of Trebbiano is known as Turbiana, which is yields wines of much greater character, a wine profile closely linked to a Verdicchio style, richer, fruit forward. Nunzio's grandfather purchased the Podere Sant'Onorata in the early 1950s. Set in the beautiful backdrop of nearby mountains and breathtaking views of the hills and lake the old vines are planted on ancient clay, mineral rich soil, which give the wines such clarity and purity of fruit. The wines are made with the minimum intervention, backed by the ergonomically designed winery and clever use of modern technology. This results in a wonderfully pure, stylish white wine of real class.
