Benedetti Marida

On the slopes of Lake Garda, Marida Benedetti cultivates family vineyards dedicated to a single grape variety: Turbiana, the lake's flagship grape, from which Lugana DOC is born. The heart of their operation is the Monte Maino vineyard, overlooking the Torre di San Martino, where the pursuit is for a recognizable expression rather than a fashionable wine. It is a work of subtraction, of listening to the soil and the humid air rising from the water's surface. From the same grape, a range of white wines takes shape: immediate, superiore, and riserva versions, each telling a different story of the same lacustrine character. The micro-zone uniting five municipalities frames a production that remains deliberately circumscribed, anchored to the identity of the denomination rather than the number of labels. The winery opens its doors to those who wish to understand this journey from grape to glass up close: book a tasting at Monte Maino, with the Torre di San Martino in the background, to follow Turbiana through its three distinct voices.
