2024 Lagrein Red

After seven vintages of making Lagrein as a rosé, last year we made our first red from the site, and this year we couldn't wait to do it again. Lagrein is an alpine variety best known in Italy's Alto Adige, where mountain air and cool nights preserve its acidity and character. We find those same conditions at Lone Pine Vineyard in El Dorado County, perched at 1,700 feet in the Sierra Foothills on volcanic rock, shale, and decomposed granite.

FUN FACT: The inspiration for working with Lagrein comes from our enjoyment of Nusserhoff Lagrein and Legrain Rosé from Bolzano, Italy.
