Villa della Torre Lugana 2021

Villa della Torre is a prestigious Italian winery connected to the Allegrini family, renowned for their work in Valpolicella. From their historic villa in Fumane, they now also produce wines from other regions, including Lugana. This appellation, located on the southern shores of Lake Garda, is known for its refined white wines made from the Turbiana grape. Lugana wines combine freshness with gentle roundness and a distinct minerality, and they are gaining international acclaim.

Tasting Note

Nose

The nose is inviting and aromatic, offering notes of white flowers, ripe pear, citrus, and a hint of almond. Beneath that lies a mineral touch reminiscent of wet stone and a trace of Mediterranean herbs.

Palate

On the palate, the wine is juicy and vibrant, with fresh acidity perfectly balanced by a creamy texture. Flavors of yellow apple, lime, and subtle salinity create complexity and tension. The wine is light on its feet, yet full of flavor.

Finish

The finish is elegant and refreshing, with lingering citrus notes and a mineral brightness that persists. A wine that is both thirst-quenching and versatile with food.

Villa della Torre

Villa della Torre is based in a magnificent 16th-century Renaissance villa in Fumane, now serving as the cultural heart of the Allegrini family. Under this label, the family produces wines beyond their traditional Valpolicella roots, including this expressive Lugana. The Turbiana grapes come from vineyards near Lake Garda, where the unique microclimate ensures perfect ripeness and fresh acidity. Villa della Torre focuses on crafting pure, elegant wines that reflect their origin, and the Lugana 2021 is a shining example: modern, refined, and beautifully balanced.
