Tramin Lagrein
Wine Description
Made from 100% Lagrein from southern Alto Adige, this deeply colored wine is a classic example of this ancient variety. After a short but intense maceration, the wine is aged in a combination of large oak casks and cement tanks to ensure softer tannins and greater finesse.
