Elena Walch's Lagrein gleams invitingly with its intense and dense garnet red colour. The complex bouquet shows discreet, spicy aromas, with cocoa, wild berries and sweet cherries in the background. Lagrein's distinctive tannins wrap around the smooth, dark fruit giving a rustic elegance, and the acidity gives it a youthful freshness. The finish is long and juicy.

Lagrein is an ancient grape variety that finds its home in the sunny vineyards of Trentino-Alto Adige in northeastern Italy. The sun-baked slopes here provide an excellent terroir for the grape, and it is the most significant red wine variety in a region where white wines dominate. Lagrein's wines are strong and full bodied with plum and wild cherry flavours, and the variety is particularly well known for the deep, dense colour it imparts to its wines.
