Tasting notes
Tilled soil and other slightly earthy tones mark the 2016 Alto Adige Lagrein Riserva Gries. It's a rustic approach, showing dark, ripe and vibrant black fruit and a lot of thickness. However, there is not much depth to this Langrein, it's actually quite shallow and immediate, keeping in line with the variety. The wine is aged in various sized oak vessels, both new and used. It's a good pick for a simple gnocchi and tomato sauce. Some 45,000 bottles were made.

A reserved lagrein offering a bouquet of pebbles, forest floor, fresh herbs, black pepper and brambleberries. Edgy and spicy on the medium-to full-bodied palate, that boasts a plethora of juicy tannins and a ton of dark fruit. Drink now.
