LUGANA SPUMANTE DOC PALAFITTE

LUGANA DOC SPARKLING WINE

Palafitte presents a straw-yellow color with greenish highlights. Its bouquet reminds of floral notes with fruity hints of citrus. It has a dry and fresh, aromatic flavor with a lingering fragrance and subtle minerality.

It is best served at 6-8°C in flûte glasses. It is excellent as an aperitif, with appetizers and fish dishes.

The name of this wine is inspired by the prehistoric era piles found in front of our vineyard.
