Lagrein

Description

High altitude east-facing slope, malolactic fermentation, then aged in oak barrels (Barrique) in the more than 600 year old cellar of our winery at constant temperature and high humidity. Lagrein is typically ruby to garnet red in color, with an evocative scent of violets and mature blackberries, as well as dark chocolate and tobacco. The taste is full, showing a strong tannic structure. Pairs well with game meat (especially deer and wild boar), red meats (think grilled dry-rubbed KC Strip) and ripe cheeses.
