Südtirol 2018; 9/28/2018-9/30/2018 (Südtirol): Tasted on site at Hofstätter. Single vineyard, barrique aged. Rich purple colour. More cherry and plum than the standard Lagrein, also significantly less earthy, perhaps because of the wood. Quite elegant in the mouth, smooth tannins and relatively subtle oak. Medium weight and a clean acidic finish with some smoke and spice. Very good.
