Turmhof Lagrein is named after the estate castle which dates back to the 12th century. The wine is made from 100% Lagrein, grown on alpine hills of spectacular Dolomite mountains.  100% estate grown fruit. The wine is fermented in stainless steel, and aged in French barriques and large oak casks.

This is very smart Lagrein made by one of the leading producers in this beautiful alpine region of Alto Adige in the far north of Italy close to the Austrian border. Fine medium bodied red with great length of flavour, fine grained tannins and balance.

Bright. clear crimson purple. the bouquet has a highly fragrant black cherry core. the palate with terrific texture. mouthfeel and length. the tannins fine and ripe. 95 points. “
