White, dry   75cl bottle

Owned by the Zenato family, the Santa Cristina Estate is located in San Benedetto di Lugana, approximately 25 kilometres west of Verona, on the banks of Lake Garda. The estate encompasses 40 hectares of vineyards located in various prime sites in the Lugana DOC production area, some of which can be dated back to prehistoric times. 

Vinification: The Trebbiano grapes were harvested at the end of September by hand. They are soft pressed on arrival at the winery and fermented in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures for 20 days. The wine is then aged for 5 months in stainless steel tanks with a further 3 months in bottle before release
