The 2022 LAGREIN Grieser Riserva Select from TENUTA ROTTENSTEINER is a still red wine from Alto Adige, a region renowned for producing quality wines. This DOC originates from three vineyards located in the centre of the Gries district, cultivated from vines over 30 years old, on deep, acidic alluvial soils. The harvest is manual and fermentation takes place in concrete, while ageing in French barriques gives the wine a fruity and velvety character, enriched by sweet tannins and complex notes ranging from cherry to chocolate, from liquorice to berries, and with ageing, to tobacco.

In the "Select" this fruity and velvety character, thanks to rich sweet tannins, is rounded off by the use of French barriques. However, the notes of wood are never dominant. Soil: Alluvial, deep and acidic. Vineyard: Derived from three vineyards located in the centre of the Gries district with vines older than 30 years. Winemaking/Ageing: Fermentation in concrete.
