The Lagrein Alto Adige DOC produced by Cortaccia is a red wine that perfectly embodies the essence of viticulture in South Tyrol. Known for its unique climate, which benefits from cool Alpine breezes and abundant sunshine, the Cortaccia area offers ideal conditions for cultivating Lagrein, a native grape variety of the region.
This wine displays a deep, intense red color. On the nose, Cortaccia's Lagrein reveals complex aromas of dark berries, such as blackberries and blueberries, intermingled with nuances of dark chocolate and sweet spices like vanilla, derived from expert maturation in barrique barrels.
On the palate, the wine demonstrates a robust yet balanced structure. Well-integrated tannins and moderate acidity lead to a persistent and pleasantly tannic finish. The texture of the wine is silky, inviting sip after sip, revealing layers of flavor that reflect the richness of the terroir.
The Lagrein Alto Adige DOC from Cortaccia is ideal for pairing with red meat dishes, game, and aged cheeses. Its complexity and rich aromatic profile also make it perfect as a meditation wine.
Presented in a bottle that reflects elegance and tradition, this wine not only promises an authentic and unforgettable tasting experience but also represents an excellent example of South Tyrolean winemaking. With aging potential that allows for appreciation in the coming years, Cortaccia's Lagrein is destined to charm wine lovers seeking a pure expression of the Alto Adige terroir.
