Vinification of the Lafot Cabernet Riserva Alto Adige from Nals Margreid

The powerful Lafot Cabernet Riserva Alto Adige from Italy is a single-varietal wine, vinified from the Cabernet Sauvignon grape variety. After harvesting, the grapes are brought to the winery as quickly as possible. There they are selected and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks and large wooden casks at controlled temperatures. The vinification is followed by aging on the fine lees for several months before the wine is finally bottled. The maturation in oak barrels is followed by a long period of bottle aging, which makes this red wine even more complex.
