Lagrein Riserva DOC - Castel Firmian

Lagrein Riserva DOC - Castel FirmianThe barrel-aged Lagrein Riserva from the Trentino-Alto Adige wine-growing region is a bright purple-red in the glass. This single-varietal Italian wine shows wonderfully expressive notes of forest fruit jam, blackcurrants, rum pot and mulberries in the glass. There are also hints of cocoa bean, walnut and oriental spices. This wine impresses with its elegantly dry taste. It was bottled with just 7 grams of residual sugar. This is a genuine quality wine that clearly stands out from simpler qualities and so, despite its dryness, this Italian naturally delights with the finest balance. Excellent taste does not necessarily require sugar. The texture of this well-balanced red wine is wonderfully dense on the palate. Thanks to the moderate fruit acidity, the Lagrein Riserva flatters the palate with a pleasing sensation without lacking freshness. The finish of this red wine from the Trentino-Alto Adige wine-growing region, or more precisely from Trentino DOC, ultimately delights with a remarkable aftertaste.
