Even with the so-called “entry-level Lagrein” of this good, you can see the fine handwriting of Chrisitan Plattner. 50% of the grapes are not destemmed, which gives structure and spice. The wine is aged in large wooden barrels and used barriques. The nose shows aromas of dark wild berries and plums, plus spicy notes of dried flowers and cocoa. Full-bodied on the palate, with an elegant, invigorating acidity structure and good length.
