Tasting note Castel Firmian Lagrein Trentino DOC
Deep and intense in character, with aromas of violets, ripe blackberries, and blackcurrants. The oak aging adds subtle notes of chocolate, black pepper, almond, and vanilla. On the palate, the wine is firm and structured, yet it remains wonderfully smooth and accessible thanks to fine tannins and balanced acidity. A light minerality provides extra freshness and length.
Food pairing
Castel Firmian Lagrein Trentino is an excellent match for rich and spicy dishes, meat dishes with a powerful sauce, grilled or smoked meat, and grilled vegetables. Also delicious with aged cheeses.
Additional information
Lagrein is a special, indigenous grape from Northern Italy. It is mainly associated with Alto Adige (South Tyrol), but has also been planted in Trentino for centuries. A written record from 1526 even shows that Lagrein was already being cultivated in Trentino at that time.
Lagrein is known for its dark color, firm structure, and beautiful combination of fruit and freshness. The grape naturally has quite a bit of tannins and acidity, which allows the wines to be powerful while remaining well-balanced. Typical aromas include black cherries, blackberries, blueberries, and violets, complemented by spicy and sometimes earthy notes.
Incidentally, the name Lagrein is likely linked to the Vallagarina, a valley in Trentino. The exact origin of the name is not entirely certain; various theories exist.
Mezzacorona was one of the first cooperatives in Italy and today represents a large group of wine companies from the far north (Trentino) to the deep south (Sicily). The vineyards of winemaker Mezzocorona are located in Trentino and Alto Adige, the region between Verona and the Alps in Italy.
