The first “red” expression of Cà Maiol with the 1988 vintage, this wine recalls in its name the myth of the hotel of the same name on the Côte d’Azur, a myth that finds enoic form here in a sensory profile that is the apex of a production path forged to enhance, as with the fairy-tale hotel, more a style than an origin. The heterogeneity of the varieties used, their unusual composition, the withering of part of the grapes, the particularly “extractive” fermentation, and the maturation for more than a year in French oak barrels are the tools that shape a symphony of scents and tastes that is at once joyful, refined, and engaging.

Fleshy mouthfeel with enveloping structure, precise and silky tannins, dynamic and refreshing development, drumming finish of fruit and spice.

Textural impact of red and black berry fruits dark spices and balsamic hints.

Preserving the area’s winemaking tradition and becoming the bearers of productive innovation has been Cà Maiol’s goal since its founding in 1967. This goal was renewed in 1996 when the company passed into the hands of founder Walter Contato’s sons.

The new generation inherits the passion for the land, the love for Lugana and the will to constantly evolve and improve its production of excellence. Just as today, the estate’s 110 hectares of land are the fertile custodians of cutting-edge wine production and a wine with a strong local identity but capable, thanks to its unique texture and contemporary design, of winning over international palates.
