ESTATE AND VINEYARDS
Tenuta Le Fornaci consists of three main vineyards located in different areas of the Lugana DOC for a total of 45 hectares: two parcels located inland and a larger one towards Lake Garda in Sirmione.
The microclimate of the Lugana area is largely influenced by the temperate breezes of Lake Garda, mild and constant with slight variations in temperature. A perfect “climatic cradle” to enhance the characteristics of a particular grape such as Turbiana.
TERROIR
The soil of the Lugana area is divided into:
- more tenacious and clayey soils, of a flat nature and extend along the hinterland between Desenzano and Sirmione.
- land located in a more hilly position, near the Monumental Tower of San Martino della Battaglia. Here the clays are sandier, the reliefs more undulating and gentle with more moraine soils, with a good presence of gravel elements.
WINES
Le Fornaci Lugana DOC is a white wine with an elegant, harmonious and mineral bouquet that displays great elegance and complexity.
Le Fornaci Lugana DOC Riserva is the exaltation of the maximum expression of Lake Garda, the perfect union between the Turbiana vine and the territory. It is a wine of great character, enveloping and persistent.
Le Fornaci Rosé is a refined and intriguing rosé, it stands out for its freshness and minerality.
