Cantine Lungarotti – Grechetto Umbria IGT

Appearance

• Pale straw yellow in colour with a hint of light green.

Nose

• The aroma is intense and fragrant with exotic fruits like pineapple and a touch of mango.

Taste

• This is a super fresh wine with a strong citrus driven backbone and some light herbal touches with a finish of green apple skin.

The best free run juice is macerated at freezing temperatures before being fermented in stailess steel and aged for a short period on lees.

Cantine Lungarotti

• The Lungarotti family have been making wine in the Tiber Valley since the 1700’s. In 1949 a collection of Umbrian wine makers gathers to discuss how to modernise the local industry, Giogio Lungarotti is among these. Over the next few decades, the family expand their vineyards and work with other locals’ families to increase the quality and variety of wines they produce. Lungarotti are often at the forefront of DOC, IGT and DOCG awards during the latter 20th century. In 2006, Chiara Lungarotti was elected as the National President of Wine Tourism in Italy. Today the family focus on making quality wines and protecting the environment being certified organic and sustainable.
