Südtirol • Alto Adige DOC
Lagrein, one of the most typical red wine varieties of Alto Adige and the Bolzano Winery, thrives on the valley floor around Bolzano with its pronounced diurnal temperature variations. The very old vines produce a wine of above-average quality, with concentrated but velvety tannins, juicy fruit and a powerful body.
