Ca' del Bosco Curtefranca Corte del Lupo Rosso 2023

Please note: the supplied title says “Rosso,” but the product type, grape varieties and tasting details identify this as Ca’ del Bosco Corte del Lupo Bianco. Made from Chardonnay and Pinot Bianco in Lombardy’s Curtefranca appellation, it combines fresh, structured fruit with a considered use of oak; its roots reach back to the winery’s first wine, made in 1972.

Tasting Notes
The wine is aromatic, with notes of golden apple, plum and pineapple lifted by delicate linden blossom. On the palate it is dry and balanced, with juicy citrus acidity reminiscent of grapefruit and a lingering finish of bitter orange. Its structure and length give it notable potential to develop in bottle, though no specific drinking window is provided.

Production
The grapes come from certified organic vineyards in Lombardy, selected for their location and exposure. Ca’ del Bosco carefully washes and dries each bunch before fermentation, which takes place partly in small oak barrels and partly in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. The wine is bottled without exposure to oxygen or stirring, then matured in bottle before release.

Food & Serving
Serve lightly chilled, around 10–12°C. Its citrus freshness and balanced texture make it a good match for seafood, grilled fish, poultry, or creamy risotto. It should be enjoyable without decanting; a few minutes in the glass can help its aromas open.

Producer
Ca’ del Bosco’s first wine was made in 1972 as Pinot di Franciacorta Bianco. Over time, the wine evolved into Corte del Lupo Bianco, whose name evokes the local farmstead, surrounding woods and wolf as a guardian of nature. The winery’s careful attention to grape handling and bottle ageing is reflected in this wine’s aromatic detail and capacity to develop.
