Pfitscher Rivus Lagrein 2024 Alto Adige

A red wine from Alto Adige made from Lagrein, grown in the Griesfeld vineyard near the village of Montagna at about three hundred metres altitude. It is vinified in temperature-controlled steel and matured for about eight months in small oak barrels. It suits stuffed pasta, ragù pasta and medium-aged cheeses. Dark ruby in colour, it has violet, forest fruits, fresh cherries and plums on the nose. The palate is rich in tannins, balanced and full-bodied, with freshness and a vein of acidity before a finish that returns to the fruit.
