Tasting Notes

Cherry red with a ruby shimmer, intense fruity (plums, berry), spicy, animal notes, medium-bodied, structured, fresh, present tannins, refined bitter.

A characterful alpine red with dark fruit, savoury depth and a firm, food-friendly backbone.

Why you'll love it: It is built for cooler-evening cooking, the kind of red that turns a slow-braised dinner into an occasion without any fuss.

The Grape

Lagrein is a dark-skinned variety native to Alto Adige, first recorded in documents dating back to 1370. It gives wines of intense colour, generous mouthfeel and a typically Italian balance of fruit and savoury structure.

About Alois Lageder

Founded in 1823 and now run by the sixth generation from Magrè in Alto Adige, Alois Lageder is one of northern Italy's benchmark estates, working a wide range of varieties across the valley floor and mountain slopes of South Tyrol. The family converted its own vineyards to biodynamic cultivation in the 1990s, and by 2024 the whole estate, including its long-standing grower partners, was farmed organically or to certified Demeter biodynamic standards. The result is a restaurant-quality range with clarity, freshness and a real sense of its alpine place.

Perfect with braised beef, roast lamb, or venison and robust cheeses. The dark fruit and firm tannins stand up to rich, savoury and gamey dishes.
