Lugana DOC 2021

It is rightly one of the most touristy and beautiful areas in Italy. We are on the shores of Lake Garda, straddling the regions of Lombardy and Veneto. Here you will find Selva Capuzza, an estate dedicated to wine production from the area's six indigenous grape varieties. The Podere, located about 4 km from the southern shores of the lake, is in a privileged, gently hilly position and lies within the borders of the three main DOC wines of the Brescia side of Lake Garda: Garda Classico, San Martino della Battaglia and, above all, the Lugana area. There is also ample open space dedicated to biodiversity, with olive trees, a wood that originated as a truffle ground, centuries-old mulberry trees and two small lakes. Podere Selva Capuzza takes its name from the locality in which it is located. 'Silvae', in fact, was the name used in Roman times to describe the country areas south of the lake, while 'Capuzza' may originate from its elevated position, at the beginning of the hills of the Garda morainic amphitheatre, on the 'cap' that lies a few hundred metres from the tower of San Martino della Battaglia.
