Cantina Terlan Lagrein Rosé

A Lagrein as a rosé — this is pure South Tyrol: the region's powerful red wine grape variety, vinified into a fresh, characterful rosé. Cantina Terlan, one of the country's most renowned cooperatives, shows here what is possible on the gravel soils of the Adige Valley.

Cantina Terlan was founded in 1893 and is now one of Italy's best cooperatives — known for precise vinification, low yields, and consistent varietal care. The Lagrein Rosé is created using classic rosé wine processing: short maceration time, then fermentation at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks. This keeps the fruit vibrant and preserves the freshness.

In the glass, it glows in a rich raspberry pink. On the nose, pink grapefruit, red currant, and a hint of exotic fruit. On the palate, full-fruited, with clean, integrated acidity and an Off-Dry finish — typical of Lagrein, recognizable even in a rosé.
