Nose
On the nose, fruity notes of blackcurrant, plum and blackberry come to the fore; the influence of oak is perceptible but by no means intrusive and is reminiscent of nutmeg with a trace of white pepper.
Palate
On the palate, the supple tannins and lively acidity effortlessly suggest the longevity of the wine. After sweetish chocolate and delicate coffee notes, fruit comes to the fore on the finish, with impressive hints of raspberry, blackberry and orange zest.
Winemaking
Lagrein RISERVA spends 24 months in barriques and tonneaux as well as in medium-sized wooden barrels. It rewards us with powerful suppleness and longevity.
Our riserva represents Lagrein at its best. The varietal´s character emerges clearly and distinctly and mingles with the aromas of ageing. An approachable wine that will also benefit from longer ageing in the bottle.
Appearance
Lagrein RISERVA has a dense purple sheen.
Food Pairing
It goes perfectly with meat dishes, ripe cheeses, dark chocolate – and long conversations in front of a flickering open fire.
