History: Actually, the Rosé is the traditional form of the Lagrein. The grapes were pressed and then drawn off a basket called “Kretz”. In the 1980’s, the Rosé suffered a decline,
but nowadays it is reliving a great Renaissance.

Vineyards: Our Rosé is cultivated in Bolzano-Gries, the classic area of Lagrein. The high quality of the grapes and a rigorous controlling of the entire vinification process calls to life a wine which is to be considered among the great rosés of this world, with its fruity cherry and strawberry notes.

Vinification: The Lagrein Rosé is produced by pressing the Lagrein grapes. This variety is so rich in colour, that even small injuries to the skin during the pressing are enough to
colour the must in the characteristic light ruby red.

Label: The Alpine ibex is our heraldic animal, and serves as the motif of the collection's label. The bright choice of colour and the light playfulness should convey the youthful freshness and fun that we hope for while drinking our wines
