TASTING NOTES

Production

It was 1964 when Lodovico Montresor welcomed Professor Vescia of the University of Brescia and Engineer Turlini to the family villa in Peschiera: two friends with whom he shared an idea to put into practice: to give a geographical identity to a wine known since the time of Catullus and produced with the Trebbiano from Lugana, known here as Turbiana. So when we speak of the Ottella winery, we are also speaking of the history of Lugana, as they were born side by side from the same hands. The winery gained new momentum in the mid-1980s, when Francesco Montresor, fresh from his law degree, joined his father; in 1993, his other son, Michele, also joined the business. Ottella is now a 90-hectare estate in Lugana, to which 20 hectares in Valpolicella have been added, on the magnificent hills of Romagnano in Valpantena, and continues to shape the history of Lugana. 100 ml: E=319 kJ/77 kcal

Organoleptic Characteristics

Lugana DOC “Le Creete” is a Venetian white wine made from 100% Turbiana grapes grown in the estate’s own vineyards in S. Benedetto di Lugana. The grapes are hand-selected between late September and early October, and alcoholic fermentation is followed by ageing on the fine lees for 7–8 months. Deep golden yellow in colour, the nose surprises with notes of ripe exotic fruit and mineral hints. On the palate, it is refined and elegant, with good body and a firm, mineral finish.

Occasion and Pairing

An everyday wine, its flavours are further enhanced when paired with shellfish, sea fish or lake fish.

Serving Temperature

To fully appreciate its style, this wine should be served at a temperature of 14–16°C.

Allergens: Solfiti

THE WINERY

Ottella

For no less than three generations, Cantina Paltrinieri, a reference point of excellence among the wineries of Emilia-Romagna, has been producing a Lambrusco di Sorbara doc from carefully selected and skilfully vinified grapes, exclusively from its own vineyards. Alberto Paltrinieri, the current manager, keeps the family tradition alive by applying the valuable teachings received from his father and grandfather every day. The Paltrinieri vineyards extend over almost 15 hectares, bordered by the Secchia and Panaro rivers, which give the soil a peculiar sandy composition. Since 1926, the Paltrinieri family's philosophy has been to cultivate the vines with respect for the surrounding environment, limiting interventions to those that are strictly necessary. The same principles are also adopted in the Paltrinieri winery, where dry wines with a good balance of acidity and minerality are obtained. Thanks also to the collaboration of oenologists Attilio Pagli and Leonardo Conti, the vinification process is handled with great care. Paltrinieri wines, mostly red, appear as a genuine expression of the territory from which they come and of the passion infused by those who produce them. Name and address of producer/distributor: Cantina Paltrinieri - Via Cristo 49, 41030 Bomporto, Sorbara (MO). Products from this winery should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
