The Distinctive Lagrein of Elena Walch, Alto Adige DOC

From the pioneering winery of Elena Walch in South Tyrol, this Lagrein Alto Adige DOC is an elegant, medium-bodied red wine. It is crafted from the region’s native Lagrein grape, grown on unique calcareous and clay soils that benefit from the cool Alpine microclimate, ensuring freshness and structure.

Tasting Profile (Sommelier's Note)

The wine presents a harmonious blend of fruit and earth:

• Appearance: Inviting, dense, intense red-garnet tones.
• Aroma: A rich bouquet of wild berries, sweet cherries, and a sophisticated whisper of cocoa and spice.
• Taste: The palate is defined by its smooth fullness and distinctive, fine-grained tannins. A playful, rustic elegance is balanced by persistent freshness, leading to a long, juicy finish.

The Perfect Match: Food & Service

This Lagrein is an outstanding accompaniment to rich, savoury dishes. Decant for one hour prior to serving at 16-18°C.

• Recommended Pairings: Traditional Shepherd's Pie (made with lamb), rich Venison Stew (Gibier), or mature, tangy cheeses like a strong Mature Cheddar.
• Cellaring: Enjoy now or cellar for up to 8 years for added complexity.
