Zenato Lugana Metodo Classico Brut 2022

Zenato Lugana Metodo Classico Brut 2022 is an elegant traditional-method sparkling wine made exclusively from Trebbiano, the local grape of the Lugana region. Produced by the Zenato family, whose work has championed native Garda varieties for more than 60 years, it combines refined bubbles with the freshness and character of Lake Garda’s terroir.

Tasting Notes
Straw yellow in colour with delicate golden reflections, this Lugana offers a fine, persistent perlage. The nose is expressive and inviting, marked by intense white flowers alongside pear and ripe apple, with additional nuances of peach and citrus. On the palate, it is balanced and full-bodied, with a silky line of acidity that brings freshness and lift. The 24 months of maturation on the lees add depth and a subtle creamy texture while preserving the wine’s bright, fruit-driven character. Enjoy now for its freshness, or over the next few years as the mousse and autolytic complexity continue to develop.

Production
Made from 100% Trebbiano, the grapes are gently pressed whole to obtain the must. Fermentation takes place with naturally occurring yeasts at a controlled temperature of 16°C in stainless-steel tanks, before the wine undergoes a second fermentation in bottle according to the Metodo Classico tradition. It then matures for 24 months on the lees, allowing autolysis to contribute greater aromatic complexity, texture and finesse.

Food & Serving
Serve well chilled at 6–8°C in a tulip-shaped sparkling-wine glass to preserve both the aromas and the elegant mousse. It is a versatile aperitif and pairs beautifully with oysters, prawns, seafood salads, sushi, delicate fried fish and soft cheeses. Decanting is not recommended; instead, open carefully and pour gently to retain the wine’s fine perlage.

Producer
Founded by the Zenato family, the winery has spent more than six decades expressing the character of the Garda area while promoting its indigenous grape varieties. Zenato is particularly associated with the wines of Lugana and the wider Veneto region, combining a strong sense of place with careful, modern winemaking. This Metodo Classico bottling reflects that approach through its precise fruit, extended lees ageing and polished, gastronomic style.
