Curious and seductive
A native of the Alto Adige in North Eastern Italy, this curious dark-skinned grape is the first variety on the Mount Avoca vineyard to bud burst in the spring and generally the last grape to harvest. The local cockatoo population has a special penchant for its flavour and thus it must be netted in the weeks prior to harvest.
Cool conditions in early spring enabled a subsequent long growing season. A warm dry summer subsided into ideal cooler autumn conditions prior to harvest.
Mount Avoca ‘Estate’ Organic Lagrein goes great with Lamb cutlets with peppery creamy buttered mash.

Clean, medium bodied flavours of blueberry jam, cherry and soft toast. Moderate tannins slowly intertwine giving way to a satisfying finish of a sweet strawberry and herbaceous vapour.
Clean pronounced aromas of blackberry, violets and coffee bean with subtle dark toasty nutmeg and earthy notes.
