Zenato Lugana San Benedetto 2023

The Zenato family has always been at the forefront of innovation in Lugana and often at odds with both tradition and the authorities – pushing boundaries to make the best wines possible regardless of what they’re forced to put on the label. Utilizing the family’s picturesque vineyards just above Lake Garda, they make Trebbiano di Lugana, a cousin of the Verdicchio grape, and they do it to perfection.

This crowd-pleasing white gives you everything you could want – I’m talking bright and inviting with the purest expression of citrus and stone fruits and Italian herbs underscored by razor-sharp minerality and decent weight. It’s the kind of bottle that can disappear in a hurry!
