2024 Perla del Garda Madonna della Scoperta Lugana Superiore

Perla del Garda Madonna della Scoperta Lugana Superiore 2024 is a refined expression of Lugana from the southern shores of Lake Garda, where the cooling influence of the lake helps preserve freshness and elegance. Made by Perla del Garda, this is a white wine that combines regional identity, precision, and a distinctly mineral character, with the added depth and structure expected from a Superiore bottling. It is a style rooted in one of Lombardy’s most historic and celebrated white-wine areas.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a bright straw-yellow colour with subtle green reflections, signalling youth and vibrancy. The nose leans toward white flowers, citrus peel, ripe orchard fruit, and a fine mineral edge, often with a delicate almond-like nuance that is characteristic of the region. On the palate, expect a clean, focused profile with good tension, fresh acidity, and a silky texture that gives the wine more weight than a simple everyday white. The finish is usually crisp and saline, with enough structure to suggest several years of graceful development in bottle, even though it is already enjoyable in its youthful phase.

Production
Lugana wines are closely linked to the clay-and-limestone soils around Lake Garda, where the terroir contributes both freshness and a distinctive mineral signature. While specific vineyard and cellar details for this cuvée are not provided, the Superiore designation indicates a more ambitious style, generally associated with lower yields, riper fruit selection, and vinification aimed at preserving aromatic purity and textural finesse.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with risottos, grilled white fish, shellfish, light pasta dishes, and poultry with herbs or lemon. It is best served well chilled, around 8–10°C, and does not usually require decanting, though a short period in the glass can help the aromas open up.

Producer
Perla del Garda is a respected producer in the Lugana area, known for crafting wines that express the character of the Lake Garda terroir with clarity and balance. The estate has helped reinforce Lugana’s reputation as one of northern Italy’s most distinctive white-wine regions, with a focus on quality, regional authenticity, and wines that can be both immediately appealing and capable of ageing well.
