More questions
The Gutturnio Superiore from Luretta is a red wine presenting a ruby-red color. On the nose it offers a pleasant profile of ripe red fruit, light floral notes and some spicy hints; the overall impression is restrained and recognizable without excess. On the palate it shows a balanced structure, medium body, well-integrated tannins and freshness that supports the sip; the persistence is pleasant and the finish clean.
This is a choice suited to those seeking a red with character but not overpowering; it pairs easily with meat dishes, cured meats and medium-aged cheeses, as well as everyday cooking. It is suitable both for daily meals and informal gatherings with friends; the recommended serving temperature is around 16–18 °C and a few minutes in a decanter can help the aromas open up. Specific information on vintage and aging is available in the producer's technical sheet.

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.
