St. Magdalener Classico
St. Magdalener was for a long time undervalued. It would never have imagined that one day wine experts would refer to our wine-growing region as a small Burgundy! Our ST. MAGDALENER CLASSICO was the first St. Magdalener to be awarded the coveted Gambero Rosso “Three Glasses” in 2009.
The CLASSICO made of 95 per cent Vernatsch and 5 per cent Lagrein show what a St. Magdalener is capable of. It is approachable and charming, with its impressive bright ruby red colour. Pronounced fruit combines with mild acidity and velvety tannins to create a lively and refined blend.
We love our CLASSICO because it fits so well into our landscape and our way of life. Traditional and at the same time modern, CLASSICO is able to adapt, and proves to be an enjoyable accompaniment to a vast array of South Tyrol, Mediterranean and Asian dishes. Chilled, but not cold, it is uncomplicated and absolutely easy going, without ever being banal.
CLASSICO sparkles vibrantly in the glass and has an attractive red berry nose. The refined cherry and almond hints entice the first sip. Despite its succulent, structured character, it is straightforward and lean on the palate, with notes of rosehip, cherry and blood oranges.
