Cantina Sociale Trento Heredia Lagrein 2021
£20.15
This variety has been cultivated for a very long time in the Trento area, especially in the northern part of the province. The grapes come from the hillsides around Trento.
Once in the winery the grapes undergo a short maceration; then the grapes are crushed, the yeasts are inoculated and the juice is fermented; during the fermentation pumping over operations take place, in order to favour the extraction of colour and soft tannins. Once the malolactic fermentation is over, the wine matures partly in stainless steel tanks and partly in French oak barrique for about 6 months. The bottling takes place in the summer. The wine ages in bottle before release.
Intense ruby in the colour, fruity on the nose with notes of red berry fruits, a hint of violet, light spicy with a delicate scent of vanilla, due to the short ageing in oak barriques. On the palate it is very well balanced, with soft tannins. Full bodied with a good persistence.
It is highly recommended with red meat dishes. Serve at 17-18° C. Will benefit from a year or two in bottle.

It was in 1956 when 11 Trentino farmers combined forces to create the Cantina Sociale in their city with an objective defending and promoting the area and its products thanks to the union of those who live and work in the area every day.
The original idea was a winner and the increase in the number of members and the quantity of grapes produced and delivered bears witness to this fact.
The vineyards that cover an area of 650 hectares are the “garden” of Trento. The rolling hills that surround the ancient city of Tridentum are the privileged place the grapes of Cantina Sociale Trento grow.
Cantina Sociale Trento makes wines from traditional local grape varieties: Riesling, Muller Thurgau, Lagrein, Teroldego, Gewurztraminer, Marzemino etc.
