Bottega Vinai Lagrein Trentino 2022

Descrizione

Cultivated since the 16th century by the Benedictine Fathers in Gries di Bolzano, the Lagrein grape variety is also well established in Trentino, to the point of authorising the opinion that its name may derive from Vallagarina. It is an indigenous grape variety with the noblest quality characteristics. It prefers warm, sheltered environments, although its late budding prevents it from being damaged by spring frost; in spring it is sensitive to large temperature swings and heavy rainfall, which cause poor fruit set and low yields. In return, the grapes yield a wine of remarkable concentration and complexity.
