'The 2024 Lugana Le Fornaci bursts from the glass with a pungent array of tropical citrus and florals complementing green melon. It entices with its fruit-forward personality, nicely o!set by a tinge of sour lemon and salty minerals. The 2024 leaves the palate completely reset and aching for another sip as nuances of mint slowly fade.' 90/100 (vinous.com)
