To the eye, it displays a very intense ruby colour, introducing a clear bouquet of raspberry, redcurrant and blackberry, enhanced by subtle hints of vanilla. On the palate, it reveals a \u003cstrong\u003elively structure\u003c\/strong\u003e, supported by excellent harmony between soft tannins and balanced freshness. Ideal for accompanying \u003cstrong\u003erich meat-based first courses\u003c\/strong\u003e or chicken cacciatore, it brings out its aromatic nuances if allowed to breathe and served in a large \u003cstrong\u003etulip-shaped glass\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe vines thrive on the foothill slopes of the Adige Valley and Vallagarina. In the first area, the vineyards are situated on \u003cstrong\u003eglacial and morainic terraces\u003c\/strong\u003e characterised by brown, gravelly and well-drained soils. Moving towards Vallagarina, the soil becomes calcareous, rich in pebbles and clay. The development of the plants benefits from a \u003cstrong\u003esub-continental climate\u003c\/strong\u003e, with hot summers and marked temperature variations between day and night. This microclimate, tempered by the constant \u003cstrong\u003einfluence of the Ora del Garda\u003c\/strong\u003e, ensures slow ripening and optimal accumulation of aromatic substances in the grapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eVinification takes place in red within small stainless steel tanks. The controlled temperature encourages a \u003cstrong\u003elong maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e on the skins, essential for extracting colour and body. Subsequently, the wine is transferred to oak barrels to complete malolactic fermentation. The \u003cstrong\u003ematuration in wood\u003c\/strong\u003e phase then continues in \u003cstrong\u003esmall barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e, thus refining the organoleptic profile. This production process results in a wine with well-defined tannins and a pronounced final persistence.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCultivated since the 16th century by the Benedictine Fathers, the \u003cstrong\u003enative Lagrein\u003c\/strong\u003e is an oenological gem of the renowned Bottega Vinai line by Cavit.
