TASTING NOTES

Production

The fermentation of the grapes takes place with skin maceration at 28-30°C in stainless steel. This is followed by pump-overs for optimal color extraction. The wine then ferments 1/3 in barriques and 2/3 in 35hL wooden vats for about 12 months. After careful bottling, it undergoes an additional 12 months of aging in the bottle.

Organoleptic Characteristics

It appears in the glass as a dark garnet red with violet reflections. The nose reveals notes of violet, cinnamon, and subtle hints of vanilla; it has pronounced acidity and flavors of berries and sour cherries on the palate.

Occasion and Pairing

Perfectly pairs with South Tyrolean cuisine. Excellent with roasted or grilled beef, lamb, game, and cheeses.

Serving Temperature

To fully appreciate its style, Lagrein Riserva Mantsch should be served at a temperature of 15-16°C.

Allergens: Solfiti

THE WINERY

Colterenzio

In 1960 near Appiano, twenty-six winegrowers from Colterenzio founded their own cooperative, thus becoming independent from the wine merchants who at the time outlined prices. This group of rebels gave the newly founded cooperative the name of their land: the small village of Schreckbichl (in Italian Colterenzio), also playing a pioneering role to pursue with great constancy a quality path. Luis Raifer joined the cooperative in 1979 as director. He brought with him a baggage laden with ambition, even following his study trip to California. It was the eighties and Alto Adige was mostly a land of reds of mediocre quality; Raifer, also a winemaker, recognized the potential of this land of its excellent wines and exploiting the favorable terroir, The adequate extension of the vine-growing area and the competence of the local winemakers took the step forward. First, in his farm "Lafòa", a sunny hill, he replaced the vines of Schiava with those of Cabernet Sauvignon and then with Sauvignon Blanc. He introduced a new quality standard, that is a lower quantity of harvest, however, compared to fine grapes, for excellent wines. The force of gravity in the phase of destemming, natural and avant-garde, is the protagonist. The new membrane presses ensure a delicate process, preserving the precious aromatic substances of the grapes. The fermentation and maturation of the wines take place, depending on the variety, in stainless steel tanks, cement or wood barrels. This mentality is transmitted to everyone, experimenting with the creation of quality groups with new varieties. At the basis of all this project there are now 300 winegrowers: members of Cantina Colterenzio. Every day the winegrowers work in their vineyards, in harmony with nature in a sustainable way thanks to the installation of solar panels and the heat recovery system. Name and address producer/distributor: Cantina Colterenzio, Strada del Vino, 8 - 39057 Cornaiano/Appiano (BZ). The products of this cellar should be stored in a cool and dry place away from heat sources.
