SÜDTIROL – SOUTH TYROL
Denominazione di Origine Controllata
GRAPE VARIETY
Lagrein 100%
TASTING NOTES
Lagrein, a typical South Tyrolean grape variety, grows and matures in the Bolzano basin and in the Gries district. The vines are more than 80 years old and are located at about 300 m asl. The considerable temperature variations between day and night together with the sandy and loose alluvial soils, give life to a complex wine with intense colors and characterized by the typical freshness. The 2022 harvest in South Tyrol, as throughout Italy, will be remembered as one of the hottest and driest. Second in temperature only to that of 2015, it began, at least in this area, almost three weeks earlier. The grapes brought to the cellar are slightly smaller than in previous years, with a higher sugar content and decidedly warmer aromas. The alcoholic and malolactic fermentation take place in steel, to preserve all the varietal aromas. The color is intense ruby ​​red with violet reflections. The nose is broad, energetic, with fruity hints of ripe cherries and blackberries, and floral hints of violet and lilac, which close a typical note of cocoa and spices. The taste is intense and persistent, with a good tannic structure, elegant and savory. Perfect match with speck, mixed cured meats, red meats and game. It can certainly be interesting to compare the same wine with the previous vintage, 2021, which in contrast had been cool and had led to a slightly delayed harvest.

Winzerberg

Winzerberg Discover the Winzerberg Winery in Südtirol and its fine wines in our online store Guido Folonari has always been in love with Südtirol, its wines, vineyards and landscapes. Right there in South Tyrol he has decided to realize his last winemaking dream called Winzerberg (Winegrowers' Mountain). Folonari has selected five small winemakers, owners of as many vineyard, with totally different “terroirs”. South Tyrol is a small jewel of the Italian wine scene, with a truly unique pedoclimatic environment, where wines of extreme elegance and complexity are born. The love for the care of the vineyard and the skillful hand of Stephan Filippi, a South Tyrolean winemaker with a great personality, have given life to seven wines that reflect the character and origin of the territory.
