Matured in French oak barrels, the wine blossoms with lingering complexity, captivating depth, and superb balance, effortlessly reflecting the diversity of the Alto Adige vineyards. Enjoy this wine today with a variety of hearty meals, or wait a few years to unveil its truly nuanced charm.

Tasting Notes

This Lagrein gleams invitingly with its intensive and dense garnet red colour. The complex bouquet captivates with discreet spicy aromas, with cocoa together with wild berries and sweet cherries in the background. Distinctive tannin structure, smooth fullness, playful yet rustic elegance and youthful freshness as well as a long, juicy finish classify the palate.
