Alois Lageder Alto Adige Lagrein 750ml 2015 nel Dense dark centre with crimson

Dense dark centre with crimson rim

The poise and finesse of this finely balanced wine are far removed from the weighty tannins and high extraction levels that characterise many old-vine Rhône blends

Fresh berry flavours lend a soft yet vibrant texture to the palate

It is the result of a natural cross of Teroldego and another native grape variety and is a relative of Syrah. Lagrein flourishes in the hot sites in the Bolzano river basin where the soils are high in sand content, gravel and porphyry.
