Allegrini Lugana Oasi Mantellina DOC 2023
(Veneto, Italy) - [WE 92] [DM 90]

About this Wine:
The company’s new venture on the shores of Lake Garda presents its highest expression in Lugana Oasi Mantellina.

Tasting Notes:
At harvest time, the perfectly ripe grapes yield mature white fruit, with peaches that seem to be embraced by fresh floral notes. The palate immediately registers its typical richness, while the marked acidity provides a sinuous mouthfeel and lends agility.

Winemaking:
After soft pressing of the grapes and fermentation, the wine is aged for about 4 months in steel tanks and for 2 months in the bottle.

Blend: Turbiana 96%, Cortese 4%

Technical Details
This unoaked white from the shore of Lake Garda is a deliciously oily, salty wine offering yellow plum, green apple, lychee and apricot flavours. Herbal and breezy, it's crying out for some fried calamari" - James Button (Nov 2024)

Ratings & Reviews

92 Points - Wine Enthusiast:
"Jasmine, mixed citrus, and a salty mineral thread rise delicately from the glass leaving a lasting impression. Bright lemon and tangy orange carry through on the tart palate, supported by a textured, saline finish that lingers for ages. Crisp and layered, it's a wine that feels like sunshine captured in a glass. Pair with fresh seafood crudo or a lemony couscous salad." - Jeff Porter (Jul 2025)
