Elena Walch, Alto Adige (Italy) Lagrein 2019

 As a writer who has met owners and visited properties, I often want to like a wine a little more than what I taste in the glass – especially one that comes from such a lovely venue as this one with winemakers to match.  This wine is a very harmonious with creamy dark-berry fruits and a bit of a tang in the finish, but I was expecting, and didn’t get, more depth of flavors and complexities than I experienced.
