Its old vines, warm alluvial soils and considered oak ageing give the wine both regional character and the structure to develop in bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeep in colour, it opens with aromas of cherry and dark forest fruits, lifted by rose and violet. Earthy hints of humus and balsamic eucalyptus meet notes of cocoa, tobacco and vanilla from its time in oak.\n\nThe palate is full and enveloping, with lively freshness, silky tannins and a long, elegant finish. The wine is made for ageing and can develop gracefully for around ten years from release when stored well.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe grapes come from the historic Taberhof vineyard in Gries, on the outskirts of Bolzano, at around 250 metres above sea level. Its warm, sandy alluvial soils and the basin’s sunny days and cool nights help build aromatic concentration and deep colour. Carefully selected grapes are fermented in wood, then aged for around a year in French oak barrels of different sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe with braised red meat, game, truffle dishes or mature cheeses. A serving temperature of 16–18°C should allow its fruit and savoury complexity to show well. Consider decanting for about an hour before serving, particularly while the wine is young.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFounded in 1908, Kellerei Bozen is one of South Tyrol’s prominent cooperatives, bringing together growers around Bolzano and showcasing the region’s distinctive vineyards. Taber Lagrein comes from vines more than 80 years old in the historic Taberhof vineyard. The 2022 vintage received Gambero Rosso’s Tre Bicchieri recognition; this award refers to that vintage, not the 2023 bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kellerei Bozen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55793680482641,"sku":"XW-63408","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bottlehero.com\/products\/kellerei-bozen-taber-lagrein-riserva-2023","provider":"Bottle Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
