"VIGNE DI CATULLO", LUGANA, RISERVA, DOC, 2018
Tenuta Roveglia


Born in the thirties, Tenuta Roveglia boasts the most extensive vineyard in the area of Lugana. Tenuta Roveglia has 175 acres of vineyards within the more than 245 acres of the estate.

Vigne di Catullo is a Lugana of great personality.  Its delicate yet robust qualities satisfy the most demanding and discerning palates.  The grapes come from the area of Lugana designated as premier cru, which was already heralded for its wine by the ancient Roman poet Catullo two thousand years ago.

Tasting Notes: Its rich flavor, with accents of hazelnut and ripe fruit, and a focused, silky finish make this wine an ideal accompaniment for pasta in light sauces, roasted meats, seafood dishes, risotto and cheese.

Wine Enthusiast Editors Choice - 94  POINTS - Vibrant and delicious, this opens with delicate, enticing scents of white spring flowers, stone fruit, beeswax, honey and citrus. Savory and rounded, the enveloping palate has structure and focus, doling out ripe yellow pear, white peach and lemon drop candy before closing on notes of saline and white almond.” — K.O.
