I Frati, Cà dei Frati, Lugana, IT, 2024

For Cà dei Frati I Frati Lugana 2024 (100% Turbiana), the professional critical picture is quite good, but there is a notable difference between critics and consumer ratings.

Overall

Professional range: 86–92 points, with 92 James Suckling the strongest readily verifiable major-critic score. The Wine Enthusiast result is considerably more conservative.

For comparison, the consumer rating on Vivino is about 4.2/5 from roughly 4,800 ratings for the 2024 listing—stronger than the Wine Enthusiast score would suggest, although Vivino is not a professional critic source.

My take: the 2024 I Frati looks like a solid-to-excellent, refreshing Lugana rather than a profound collector's wine. Its strengths are freshness, peach/apricot fruit, citrus, minerality and crisp acidity. At around 92 from Suckling, it is particularly attractive if you like lively northern Italian whites. Wine Enthusiast's 86 suggests that expectations should be calibrated toward an enjoyable everyday/premium aperitif and food wine rather than a highly complex white.
