Carano Lagrein Riserva 2019 - 13% vol. Baron di Pauli

Description: 
Intense, ruby red colour. Fruitdriven nose with aromas of cherries, black currant and plum. On the palate savoury with spicy nuances, a delicate tannin structure and a soft mouthfeel. 
Carano in Val di Fiemme, the place of origin of Baron di Pauli, is where it all begins. This wine embodies the rapport between territory and Lagrein's native soul. Carano shuns the grape's intractably rustic edge and shades into a sophisticated elegance, transcending mere sense of place to become a genuinely cosmopolitan icon.

It was the year 1999 when the Baron Di Pauli family decided to renew the three-hundred-year tradition of their estate and lay down the milestone for the production of special wines. In this sense, cooperation was established with the Kaltern Winery. The estate includes two farms. The Arzenhof, with its 10.5 hectares devoted to vineyards, stands on a hill right above Lake Caldaro. The production includes 3 wines: Arzio, a Bordeaux blend, Lagrein Carano and Kalterersee Kalkofen. While the second farm has 4.5 hectares of land and is located near Termeno. In the spring of 2004, the first Gewürztraminer Exilissi was put on the market. Cuvée Enosi was obtained from Riesling, Sauvignon and Pinot bianco grapes. 
Strength and elegance, refinement and structure, but also character and personality. These are the main characteristics that distinguish the wines of the Baron Di Pauli estate in Caldaro. The name of the family and of the estate are closely linked to the history of the area around Lake Caldaro.
