Lagrein has its home in Italy's North-East, in the fantastic sounding Alto-Adige region. I think this is a variety we're going to see a lot more of in Australia. This example shows why.
Aromatically fresh. A little like chewing a minto, cherry drop and bouquet garni all at once with its lovely cherry fresh, mint and herby profile.
It's an aroma that belies the savoury notes within. There's a core of earthen notes, blackcurrant accented and all seasoned with pepper. More-ish, savoury, peppery and great length all add to the intrigue this wine provides. Top stuff. 91 - Very Good
