2019 Tiefenbrunner Lagrein “Turmhof”

This Lagrein is known for its strong garnet-red color with violet reflexes. Its bouquet produces a tender, characteristic aroma that recalls violets and cherries, subtly underlined by its full, round and fruity taste. Fine-grained tannins and a pleasant acidity support the long finish of this native South Tyrolean wine.

Chalk gravel moraine soil.

Fermentation on the skins in concrete vats is followed by malolactic fermentation and aging for ten months at 75% in barrique and at 25% in large oak. After blending, the assemblage spends another two more months in concrete vats. Finally, the wine is allowed to mature additional five months in the bottle.
