XXX L'Étranger Vigneti delle Dolomiti IGT 0.75L

A South Tyrolean Syrah that looks towards France: The XXX L'Étranger – the stranger – deliberately plays with the origin of the grape variety and shows what the Dolomite templates can make of this character.

The Kaltern winery is one of South Tyrol's most prestigious cooperatives, founded in 1906 on the shores of Lake Kaltern. Around 400 member vineyards cultivate sites between 220 and 900 meters above sea level – a spectrum that imparts both Mediterranean warmth and alpine freshness to the Syrah. The IGT classification Vigneti delle Dolomiti provides the necessary freedom for single-varietal experiments beyond the classic appellations.

In the glass, a dry red wine with a dark core reveals itself: blackberry, black olive, and violet on the nose, accompanied by a typically spicy, peppery note that makes Syrah unmistakable. The palate is full-bodied with well-integrated tannins, a lively acidity, and a lingering, slightly smoky finish.

Best served at 16–18 °C . Pairs well with braised lamb, venison ragù, or aged pecorino cheese. If desired, open the bottle an hour before eating.
