Corte del Lupo Bianco 2019 Ca' del Bosco is a stunning and uniquely complex white wine that blends the structure and richness of Chardonnay with the finesse and fruit-forward elegance of Pinot Blanc. After spending a few years aging in the bottle, it emerges generous and ready to offer pure pleasure and timeless Italian sophistication.
Its story begins in 1972, when Ca' del Bosco crafted its first white wine, originally known as Pinot di Franciacorta Bianco. Over the years, the name changed, but the essence remained: a wine that evolves with remarkable longevity while staying true to its terroir. Since 2017, it has been known as Corte del Lupo—a name that reflects the harmony between vineyards, surrounding forests, and the wolves that silently guard the land.
Corte del Lupo Bianco 2019 Ca' del Bosco is made from 80% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Blanc, sourced from 13 certified organic vineyards. Each grape cluster is meticulously washed and dried—a signature of Ca' del Bosco’s perfectionism. Fermentation takes place in small, second-use oak barrels (25%) and stainless-steel tanks, adding complexity and balance. The wine matures on its lees for 8 months, and malolactic fermentation is avoided to preserve its crisp acidity and pure fruit character. It then rests in bottle for at least 6 months, allowing its aromatic and flavor profile to fully develop.
Only a few bottles from the 2019 vintage remain—if you're quick, one could be yours.
