Weingut Niklas Lagrein, Sudtirol DOC-Alto Adige, Italy (750ml)

Vintage: 2021
Description: About the Icons. Lagrein is an indigenous variety that is often made into a rosé, a dark, intense and tannic "reserve/age-worthy" style wine, or as is the case here, a lighter style medium-bodied young red wine meant to be consumed upon release. Young Lagrein can be a bit off putting with overwhelming tannins, but this Niklas is very friendly and drinkable with slightly chalky tannins on the finish. It has a light plummy fruit flavor as well as a savory quality that makes it a great pairing with braised meats and rich tomato based pastas, a platter of charcuterie, or a mushroom risotto. Completely overdelivers for the price point.
