2022 granit Lagrein
Quantity:
Description
Lagrein is an ancient grape variety that finds its home in the sunny vineyards of Trentino-Alto Adige in north eastern Italy. Its wines are strong and full bodied with plum and wild cherry flavours, and the variety is particularly well known for the deep, dense colour it imparts on wines. Lagrein has a characteristically north-Italian fresh, acidic structure and a slightly astringent finish, making it best paired with food.
REGION: Southeast Australia.
COLOUR: Deepy ruby.
NOSE: Aromas of red and black berry fruits – raspberry, red currant, black cherry, black currant and hints of mulberry and boysenberry. Savoury notes of black olives as well as charry oak, vanilla and dark chocolate aromas fill the senses.
PALATE: Fruit, acid and tannin are woven together to provide a long, satisfying finish with characteristics of raspberry, mulberry, dark chocolate, black olives and a hint of vanilla from oak peering through and typical dried Italian herbs.
DID YOU KNOW? Lagrein (‘Lah-grey-n’) is a medium-bodied red wine grape originating in northern Italy and is the grandfather grape to Syrah.
FOOD MATCHING: Try with a slow braised lamb shoulder, crispy potatoes, zesty baby roasted vegetables with rosemary jus & green olive salsa.
