<p>:Very dark ruby red in colour, this Lagrein Latus presents itself on the nose with a delicate, spicy note of ripe black cherries and berries. On the palate it develops a robust, full but juicy and velvety structure with a mineral, complex and very persistent aftertaste.Grape varierty:Lagrein – South Tyrol DOC – autochthonous varietalProduction area:The Lagrein vines, some of which are over 45 years old, grow in Gries near Bozen and in Auer in the South Tyrolean Lowlands.

This wine is then aged in French barriques and large oak barrels.Food pairing:This Lagrein is an excellent accompaniment to red meats, game and mature cheese.Serving temperature:16 – 18°C.Ageing potential:more than 5 years.Bottle size:750 ml – 75 cl – 0,75 lt.Allergens:wine can contain sulphites.Producer:Ritterhof WineryAnd uniqueness is provided by the vineyards of the Ritterhof, which are distributed from Salorno all the way up to Renon. The product line is extremely broad, ranging from Red Muscat to Merlot and Lagrein all the way to Pinot Noir and Gewürztraminer. And, it goes without saying, Schiava. That is a bow to the winegrowing tradition by the Ritterhof Estate Winery. And innovation is provided by the fungus-resistant varieties with which the Kaneppeles are experimenting in their trial vineyards. And the three colors also correspond to the three lines of the estate winery. Brown is the color of the Terra line, and thus of down-to-earth Alto Adige wines, while green decorates the Collis line for which only completely mature grapes from the best terraced slopes are used. Blue, on the other hand, stands for the top line Rarus, consisting of wines that are carefully aged in small oak casks.Tenuta Ritterhof CantinaStrada del Vino 1IT – 39052 Caldaro sulla strada del Vino (BZ)info</p>
