For years, the red top Riserva of the Bolzano Winery has undisputedly been the Lagrein Taber with a fine bouquet of wild berry fruit, herbal aromas and spicy notes. Taber is a dense, full-bodied wine carried by a pleasant acidity and silky tannins, finishing with notes of candied fruit. A top wine from over 80-year-old vines of the Taberhof near Gries and virtually every year an aspirant to the "Tre Bicchieri" of the Gambero Rosso. The best Lagrein Riserva in South Tyrol? Find out!

"Very dense, concentrated nose with lots of dark fruit, exotic spices, dark dark chocolate, ripe blueberries and dark spicy notes, liquorice. Despite the fullness with quite cool beginnings. In the mouth, the powerful Lagrein is very creamy, with an almost chocolatey texture and round, pleasing and melting in the best sense, an elegant delight with fine, acidity and noticeable, sweetish tannins, but also with a nice draw and freshness. Still too young. Let it lie." Weinwisser

"Rich, impenetrable ruby violet. Intense nose with notes of elderberries and blueberries, spicy background, plus some dark chocolate. Hearty and grippy on the palate, showing plenty of pithy tannin with a supple core, lots of fresh juicy fruit, elderberries and black cherries, lingers long." Falstaff

"Plush aromas of wood smoke, aromatic herb, plum, fig, and cedar, palate of black cherry and dark chocolate." Decanter

"Pouring from the bottle with an exceptionally dark and inky appearance, the 2018 Alto Adige Lagrein Riserva Taber is super rich and succulent. You could pair it with spicy barbecued ribs, given the softness of the tannins and the broad, velvety appeal of the mouthfeel. Dark fruit, plum and ripe blackberry ride long on the finish. There is a playful note of sweetness on the close." Robert Parker

"This smells of the blackest wild berries you can imagine, but on the palate it is plusher and livelier than the nose suggested. The velvety tannins and energetic acidity are already very well integrated on the medium-to full-bodied palate. Should age well, thanks to the excellent balance." James Suckling
