Description |
Three selected vineyards, with plants that are now almost a century old and therefore provide very concentrated grapes rich in extracts, are the cradle of this selection of Lagrein. Vinified entirely in barrique, the Lagrein Porphyr, which owes its name to the prevalent stone of the soils on which it grows, expresses a varied and intense bouquet that enhances the compact and unmistakable flavor with which it delights the palate. |

Winemaking technique |
Manual harvest and selection of grapes. Destemming of the bunches and subsequent slow fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature and with gentle movement of the must. |

Perfume |
The bouquet of this Lagrein selection is immediately very full and rich in facets, with a veil of licorice, coffee beans, vanilla pods, cloves and black tea. An aromatic but also fruity scent, with hints of morello cherry and blackberry. |
Taste |
The taste profile is harmonious, with decidedly compact, concentrated and varied aromas, characterised not only by a fruity taste, but also by spicy aromas and a light sweetish note of dark chocolate, embellished by very refined tannins. |
