The “Lagrein Riserva DOC Karl - 2022" from Bergmannhof represents the outstanding combination of tradition and specific location around St. Pauls/Eppan. As a riserva, this wine has a longer aging period, which gives it additional depth and complexity. This rating stands for a selective selection of the best grapes and extended aging, usually in oak barrels, which gives the wine richer aromas and a more stable structure.
Made from 100% Lagrein, this wine grows on loamy limestone soil, which gives it a characteristic minerality and depth. The color is a deep dark red, and the nose is dominated by an intense aroma of dark berries and plums, complemented by subtle spicy notes, which are accentuated by storage in oak. In terms of taste, the wine offers a full, balanced structure with well-embedded tannins and a persistent, spicy finish.
Mash fermentation traditionally takes place in large wooden vats, followed by biological acid degradation and 18-month aging on fine yeast in oak tonneaux, which promotes the complexity of the wine's taste and storage potential. The Bergmannhof, a family business since 1851, is committed to sustainable farming, with the deep connection to the terroir being felt in every glass of this impressive Lagrein Riserva.
