With its typical deep garnet red colour, it displays a \u003cstrong\u003eharmonious and vinous profile\u003c\/strong\u003e with a full and velvety body. On the nose, it offers notes of cranberry and morello cherry, aromas of lilac and bay leaves, with hints of flint and chocolate. The palate reveals an elegant texture supported by \u003cstrong\u003erefined tannins\u003c\/strong\u003e. Excellent after an hour of decanting, it enhances the flavours of \u003cstrong\u003emature cheeses and game\u003c\/strong\u003e, such as braised venison and beef roulades.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe vineyards are located in the Terlano area, within the Alto Adige region, at an altitude of 250-290 metres. The roots delve into a \u003cstrong\u003esandy and permeable soil\u003c\/strong\u003e, with a strongly stony matrix. These geological features give the wine a distinct varietal identity and a well-defined structure. The local microclimate and \u003cstrong\u003ecarefully controlled yields\u003c\/strong\u003e allow the grapes to reach ideal phenolic ripeness. In this context, Lagrein develops its \u003cstrong\u003eintense colour\u003c\/strong\u003e, reflecting the winegrowing vocation of the mountainous territory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvesting\u003c\/strong\u003e and destemming, vinification begins with a slow fermentation at controlled temperature in steel tanks, accompanied by gentle handling of the must. The subsequent \u003cstrong\u003emalolactic fermentation\u003c\/strong\u003e softens the palate and perfectly integrates its natural acidity. The maturation phase continues for seven to ten months in \u003cstrong\u003elarge wooden barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e, a choice that allows the tannins to round out while respecting the original fruit character. The result is a balanced and persistent red, an authentic expression of the work of Cantina Terlano.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1893, \u003cstrong\u003eCantina Terlano\u003c\/strong\u003e is a pioneering South Tyrolean cooperative. Its \u003cstrong\u003eLagrein Tradition 2025\u003c\/strong\u003e expresses the authenticity of the region, originating from grapes grown on sandy and stony soils between 250 and 290 metres above sea level. Under the expert guidance of oenologist Rudi Kofler, the manual harvest gives rise to a velvety and harmonious wine. Careful ageing in large wooden barrels enhances its refined tannins and enveloping aromas of morello cherry and chocolate, paying tribute to the prestigious \u003cstrong\u003eAlto Adige DOC\u003c\/strong\u003e designation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Cantina Terlano","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46259703775403,"sku":"60561","price":20.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/terlano-lagrein-tradition-2025_60561_1_339ea6c7-57e1-4834-b41a-aed591b671b5.webp?v=1773815019","url":"https:\/\/www.xtrawine.com\/en-dk\/products\/terlano-lagrein-tradition-2025","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
