Tasting notes
The 2003 Cabernet Cor Römigberg is mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with a dollop of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. This is one of hotter microclimates in Alto Adige, so I suppose the wine's rich, full-bodied style is not too surprising. The Cor Römigberg possesses gorgeous ripeness while retaining notable vibrancy. Dark red fruit, sweet herbs, licorice and herbs linger on the long, refined finish.

The Cor Romigberg possesses gorgeous ripeness while retaining notable vibrancy. Dark red fruit, sweet herbs, licorice and herbs linger on the long, refined finish. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2015. This is by far the most impressive set of wines I have tasted from Alois Lageder, one of Alto Adige’s largest and best-known producers. Importer: Dalla Terra, Napa, CA; tel. (707) 259-5405
The 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon Cor Römigberg is a big, full-bodied wine. It displays notable concentration but very little varietal expression, depth or persistence.
