Lagrein Riserva "Furggl" comes from rather clayey soils in the area around Auer/Ora and is a spicy, elegant wine with an intense aroma of violets and wild berries. Clean, fruity and rich flavour with sweet tannins, precisely calibrated acidity and a well articulated finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Dark, rich ruby colour with a purple rim. Fruity and dense nose of ripe blackberries and cranberries, with a hint of violets. Polished on the palate, velvety and soft tannins, very juicy fruit, slightly bitter aftertaste." Falstaff

"Medium ruby red colour. The nose is snappy. Eucalyptus, tar, ripe plums, lots of oak. Lots of everything. Very dark chocolate on the palate and high extraction. The wine needs air and time." Vinum

"The flavours of macerated blackberries and juicy black cherries are underlined by a spicy hint of herbal olives, ground pepper and mineral notes. This medium-bodied red wine is dark but fresh, with good tension from the fine-meshed, taut tannins." Wine Spectator

"The Lagrein Riserva Furggl 2021 is dark, almost wild in the glass, with a woody blend of wild berries, earthy tones and peppery herbs. The juicy acidity soothes the palate with a silky texture that brings out an abundance of tart red and blue berries. Grippy tannins show on the finish, while the 2021 finishes structured and long with a lingering primary concentration." Vinous

"A full-bodied red with blueberries, cassis, dark chocolate, hazelnuts and rosemary on the nose. Firm yet creamy, with a solid tannin structure and a velvety texture that carries you through. Long and polished. Drink or keep." James Suckling
