Descrizione

The Lagrein Alto Adige DOC Latus from Ritterhof presents an intense, concentrated profile. Dark ruby in color with violet reflections, it offers a bouquet of ripe black fruits, plum and blueberry, accompanied by subtle spicy hints and a touch of violet that lightens its tone. On the palate it is full and enveloping: tannins are well present but smooth, freshness is balanced and a savory thread supports the sip through to a pleasant persistence. The structure is solid without being heavy, ideal for those seeking a red with character and drinkability.

Perfect with roasted meats, braised dishes and aged cheeses, it also delights with traditional mountain recipes. The magnum bottle enhances balance over time and the wooden case makes it practical both as a gift and for storage; it is advisable to serve it at a moderate temperature, after a short decanting if you wish to open its deeper aromas. A choice of character for those who appreciate South Tyrolean reds.
