Ca' Lojera

Monte della Guardia Merlot

Ca’ Lojera, pronounced “callow yerra”, means “house of the wolf”, making this a Stark wine for GoT fans. The estate was originally the bishop’s Summer home, so here, the “wolves” refer to smugglers who used the estate as a base during the rest of the year.

Ca’ Lojera is primarily a producer of Lugana whites, but they grow a bit of Cabernet and Merlot for their rosato, and make stainless steel varietal wines of each. The Merlot is surprisingly good, with smooth, clean cherry and blueberry fruits, and just a touch of pepper spice bite to the finish.

Zenato

Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Corvina Blend 2015

Sergio Zenato and his wife Carla began to produce quality wines from an indigenous varietal, Trebbiano di Lugana, and passed down through the generations. A blend of 80% Corvina, 10% Rondinella, 10% Oseleta and Croatina. Medium Ruby with aromas of dried berry fruits, sweet and smoky notes with pleasant herb spice. On the palate flavors of ripe currants and sweet blackberries with cacao, spice, oak and nutty tones. Fine tannins, long complex finish ending slightly creamy with cedar notes. Starting to drink well now, enjoy over next 4-5 years. — 5 years ago
