Lagrein is relatively easy to recognise by its dark berry aromas and a delicate scent of violets, often also plums and sour cherries. It has a dark colour, is full-bodied and velvety, has mild tannins and moderate acidity
As a local red wine (and rosé), it is currently booming in South Tyrol. But demand is also growing internationally among enthusiasts who love independent and autochthonous varietal wines. And that is definitely what it is, there is actually no comparable red that brings this wonderful dark fruit fullness with simultaneous mildness and velvetiness. Pure regional varietal typicity.
