Lagrein Riserva - Salizzoni

The elegant Lagrein Riserva from Salizzoni comes into the glass with a bright purple-red color. The bouquet of this red wine from Trentino-Alto Adige impresses with aromas of raspberry. If we follow the aromatics further, blackcurrant joins in.

The Salizzoni Lagrein Riserva presents itself to the wine lover as wonderfully dry. This red wine never appears coarse or lean, but rather round and smooth. On the palate, this balanced red wine is characterized by an exceptionally crisp, velvety and fleshy texture. On the finish, this red wine from the Trentino-Alto Adige wine-growing region delights with beautiful length. Hints of raspberry appear once again. In the aftertaste, mineral notes from the gravel- and sand-dominated soils are also added.

Vinification of the Lagrein Riserva from Salizzoni

The basis for the well-balanced Lagrein Riserva from Trentino-Alto Adige is grapes of the Lagrein variety. In Trentino-Alto Adige, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on soils of sand and gravel. After the harvest, the grapes are quickly brought to the winery. There they are sorted and gently crushed. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks and small wooden barrels follows at controlled temperatures. The fermentation is followed by several months of aging on the fine lees before the wine is finally drawn off.
