At harvest time, the perfectly ripe grapes bear mature white fruit embraced by fresh floral notes and hints of almond. The palate immediately registers its typical richness, while the marked acidity provides a sinuous mouthfeel and lends suppleness. The dry, non-sparkling style of Lugana in its simplest versions is excellent as an aperitif and paired with appetizers or freshwater fish such as trout, perch and whitefish. The versatility of this wine goes even further: the international appeal of the flavour of Lugana makes it a perfect match with raw fish, such as the Japanese preparations of sashimi and sushi and international variations on the theme. It is also ideal with salmon and tuna and goes perfectly with fish-based finger food.
