Lagrein 2021

Tasting note

Deep dark red. The intense, expansive bouquet recalls red berries, fresh grass, violets, spices and cocoa. The palate stands out for its refreshing character, juicy, polished and substantial tannins, pleasing fullness and a long finish. Lagrein can be enjoyed young, while further bottle ageing softens and rounds it out.

Terroir

The Lagrein thrives in sunny locations at 220 to 250 meters above sea level. The vineyards facing south and southwest are characterized by warm alluvial soils with a high proportion of gravel and offer ideal conditions for this late-ripening variety. The special microclimate allows the Lagrein to develop its full maturity and characteristic expression.
