Waldgries Ansitz Lagrein Riserva Südtirol DOC 2020

Extended maceration for 35 days with 10% whole cluster inclusion. 1/3 was aged in large casks and 2/3 in barriques. Deep and dark with a truly inky colour. Coffee, cocoa, tobacco leaf, and cedar notes indicate some new wood. Rest assured, all come with a solid fruit core, blood plum, black cherry, blood orange and hibiscus. There is a gamey, iodine character too. Lots of interest! Opulent and firmly structured mouthfeel that walks the fine line between ripeness and freshness. Bitter walnuts and amaro provide a pleasantly savoury finish.
