Wine: the distinctive characteristics of Lagrein have been identified

The five–year Lagrein European project of the Laimburg Testing Center has been concluded

   The distinctive characteristics, the metabolic profile and the main substances contained in the wine originated from native grapes of South Tyrol have been found out. The project showed that the microclimate influences greatly the quality of the wine and that to have a great Lagrein you need in particular a high temperature of air and grapes, a not very fertile soil and a moderate water stress.
