The Moscato Giallo “Vogelmaier” wine originates from one of the most famous estates in South Tyrol. Since the late 1800s, the Lageder family has been involved in viticulture in the Magré area. Today, they manage about 150 hectares of vineyards located in various areas of South Tyrol, allowing them to cultivate each variety in the area that presents the most suitable soils and microclimate. The goal is to produce wines that are a faithful and authentic expression of the grape-terroir connection, with a rigorous approach and the aim of achieving the highest quality. In the countryside, the principles of organic and biodynamic agriculture are followed to preserve environmental biodiversity and create a harmonious relationship with the natural context. Following the meticulous attention to work in the vineyard, there is careful work in the cellar, where the aim is to promote the natural process of transforming the musts into wine, intervening as little as possible.
The “Vogelmaier” by Alois Lageder is produced with Moscato Giallo grapes from the namesake estate. The vineyards are cultivated at an altitude ranging from 300 to 400 meters above sea level, on light and draining soils, predominantly composed of gravel and moraine and alluvial sands. After the gentle pressing of the grapes, the must ferments in steel tanks. Before bottling, the wine matures 6 months on the fine lees in steel tanks. In the glass, it has a light yellow color with slight and bright greenish reflections. The aromatic profile is intense with floral aromas, of orange blossom, citrus, ripe fruit, delicate hints of nutmeg, and soft spices. The palate is aromatic, with a harmonious, juicy, and rich mid-palate, leading to a dry, savory, and lively finish.freshness. A very pleasant wine, which with its well-balanced, fresh, mineral, and intense taste, accompanies us on a long journey to discover the splendid slopes of the Wine Roads, in the surroundings of Margreid.
