More questions
The Cabernet Sauvignon Corbeau from Luretta is a red wine that highlights typical Cabernet Sauvignon traits with restraint and clarity. In the glass it shows a medium-intense ruby colour; on the nose there are aromas of ripe black fruit such as cherry and blackberry, accompanied by light sweet spice notes, a subtle herbaceous streak and a discreet mineral touch. The structure is balanced, with present but well-integrated tannins, fresh acidity and a linear flavour progression that favors drinkability without sacrificing personality.
It pairs well with red meats, roasts and savory dishes, as well as with aged cheeses or mushroom-based preparations, offering versatility suited to informal dinners and convivial occasions. A moderate serving temperature and a short aeration in the glass can help open its aromatics. Produced by Luretta, it is a practical choice for those seeking a direct and sincere cabernet, suitable for relatively young consumption but capable of expressing itself with balance.

The story
The story of Luretta began with the Salamini family's investment in the hills of Val Luretta: land restored and vineyards planted from the late 1980s, leading to the transformation of the business into an established wine estate and the subsequent opening of the winery and tasting rooms at Castello di Momeliano. Over the years, the owners and technical management have focused on raising quality and on enhancing labels such as Gutturnio and Metodo Classico sparkling wines.
Production philosophy
Luretta works with an approach aimed at expressing the terroir: organic viticulture, selecting the grape variety best suited to each vineyard, carefully timed harvesting and targeted winemaking. It oversees aging in wood when necessary and produces traditional method sparkling wines as well as still wines, prioritizing typicity and quality.
