Nunzio Ghiraldi

Lugana is a white wine region located to the south of Lake Garda, Italy’s largest lake. Wines of the region are made almost exclusively from Turbiana, a grape previously thought to be part of the Trebbiano family. Then, for a time, Turbiana was thought to be identical to Verdicchio; however, it has now been confirmed to be its own unique variety. The mouthwatering acidity of Nunzio Ghiraldi’s Sant'Onorata 1953 Lugana makes it a terrific food wine. Play off aromas of mineral and grilled citrus and flavours of lime and white grapefruit by pairing with pan-seared tilapia topped with fresh citrus salsa.
