The Tenutæ Lageder Lowengang Cabernet from the 2011 vintage hails from the picturesque Alto Adige region, where the unique microclimate and mountainous landscape contribute to its exceptional quality. This wine showcases a deep red hue, inviting you to explore its aromatic profile.

The fruit intensity is prominent, featuring notes of ripe blackcurrant and dark cherry, complemented by subtle hints of herbal undertones.

While France takes the crown for the most famous wines styles and grape varieties, Italy is where wine was first perfected. The ancient Greeks called it Oenotria—"land of the vines"—and the Roman Empire advanced grape growing and winemaking to a level of quality we still enjoy today. But behind Italy's best-known wines, such as Chianti, Barolo and prosecco, there's an almost endless diversity of delights awaiting the intrepid explorer. The key to understanding Italian wine is regionality and (of course) food. From the aromatic and sparkling whites of the north to Sicily's rich and spicy reds, Italy offers wine lovers a lifetime of gastronomic treats.
