Carlotto Lagrein 2018
32.00€

"di ora in ora" is a wine made from Lagrein grapes that ripen at Ora, on alluvial soil of the Rio Nero. Being a variety with medium late-ripening requires warm areas but what makes the difference is the soil. The alluvial nature, rich in skeleton, means that during the maturation period (end of September - beginning of October) the rains do not cool down too much the soil, which certainly happens in more compact, colder soils such as clayey or loamy even if located in warmer areas. Historical South Tyrolean grape variety gives origin to a wine with a characteristic blackberry nose, while in the mouth, a rich tannin, requires a targeted vinification for the extraction of only the fine part.

A wine whose strength is freshness.
