The Viticoltori Sudtirol Lagrein from the 2012 vintage is a captivating red wine hailing from the picturesque Alto Adige region. This wine showcases a full-bodied structure, complemented by high acidity that lends a refreshing zest to its profile. Rich and ripe fruit intensity shines through, with prominent notes of dark berries and hints of plum, making it incredibly enticing on the palate. The tannins are notably firm, providing a solid backbone that enhances the wine's longevity. As a dry red, it beautifully balances its complexity with an elegant finish, inviting wine enthusiasts to experience the distinctive character of the Lagrein varietal. This wine is a true testament to the terroir of Alto Adige, reflecting both its heritage and the artistry of its winemakers.

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.
