Trentino Lagrein Dunkel, Bottega Vinai - Rich and robust with smoky wood aromas which mingle with red berries and spiced vanilla on the nose. The palate is dry with a very typically Italian sweet and sour twist leading to brambles on the finish.
Produced from fruit grown in the Valle del Sarca, on loose stony-limestone soils caressed by the warm wind coming from Lake Garda. The Lagrein grape is indigenous to Italy. It prefers warm, sheltered areas and produces wine of noteworthy concentration and complexity.
Aged in oak barriques for 12-14 months and subsequently matured in small oak barrels for a further 6 months.
Delicious served with rich red meat dishes, spicy foods and creamy chicken and mushroom casserole.
