Heinrich Mayr (Nusserhof) Riserva Südtirol Lagrein 2009

$32.99

The 2009 Lagrein Riserva wraps around the palate with layers of super-expressive, radiant fruit. Sweet red berries, tobacco, crushed flowers, mint and anise are some of the many notes that are woven together in the glass. Extended time in barrel has added considerable textural richness...fabulous. The silky tannins and overall depth of the fruit cover some of the wilder notes typical of Lagrein, but there is plenty of varietal expression. This is another striking, reference-point wine from Heinrich Mayr. Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media

Inky and thick in the glass, but lively, mineral, and smokey on the palate. Drinking beautifully 6-7 years in.

A true delight. Farmed organically in a vineyard surrounded by warehouses and industry. Leather, anis, violets, and a touch of Fernet.
