Pinot Nero 'Apollonia' Alois Lageder 2010

Apollonia is the excellent Pinot Noir of the winery Alois Lageder, a ruby pearl, created with biodynamic agriculture, whose philosophy has been fully espoused by Lageder family that, since many years, has banned the use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers on their land. A courageous choice that pays the undisputed quality of the products signed with the golden star of the cellar Lageder. It is not only the type of agriculture to contribute to uncontested success of this brand, is also one of the best terroir of the area and the human ability to sanction such a triumph wine. For Alois Lageder is not only a good ground with a mild climate to make good wines: essential is the touch of the man who cares it. Without a skillful work in vineyard and in cellar, a terroir wouldn’t communicates its full potential through the wine. This mix of man and nature is the basis of the philosophy of this incredible winery and is the soul of Alois Lageder’s wines. From the farm Sanct Apollonia, at a height of about five hundred meters above sea level, the grape of Pinot Noir ripe sun-kissed on soil where clay, gravel and limestone combine perfectly. Those are the components for what will become an exceptional red wine: the Apollonia. A vigorous and intense Pinot Noir, with young taste revealing shyly a strong but softly balanced character. It seems to fluctuate on the palate, giving a persistent memory made even more pleasant by its jaunty freshness. An ideal red wine to accompany evenings where the most important guest is wine: in addition to good friends, of course.
