St Michael Eppan Fallwind Lagrein Riserva 2021

Description

Thanks to its selection and low yields, Lagrein is the most representative native red wine of South Tyrol. In order to obtain Lagrein Riserva Fallwind in the vineyard, moraine and gravelly soils in the Bolzano basin are preferred. Ageing and resting in wood enhance the harmony, and the result is a complex red wine, which captivates with its robust structure and diversity of aromas.
