Lagrein

Lagrein, a native red grape of the Trentino-Alto Adige region in northern Italy, embodies the alpine terroir with its robust character and distinctive flavors. Often found in blends or as a varietal wine, Lagrein grapes thrive in the region’s cool climate and high-altitude vineyards.

Lagrein wines are known for their deep color, intense fruitiness, and bold tannins. They typically exhibit flavors of dark berries, black cherry, plum, and sometimes hints of chocolate and spice. With its full-bodied nature and pronounced acidity, Lagrein pairs exceptionally well with hearty dishes and rich cheeses.

Despite its relatively low profile on the international wine scene, Lagrein has gained recognition among enthusiasts for its unique expression of Alpine viticulture, offering a captivating taste of Italy’s northern landscapes.
