Colterenzio 2001 Lafoa Cabernet Sauvignon (Alto Adige)

  1. $65
There’s a very pretty and refined quality to this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon that distinguishes it from the others. From a mountainside vineyard in alpine Alto Adige, the variety expresses itself with delicate aromas of forest berry, menthol, sweet clove, porcini mushroom and moist tobacco. Complex, linear, intense and very persistent in the mouth, this is a showcase…  — M.L.  (9/1/2006)

Colterenzio 2009 Lafòa Sauvignon (Alto Adige)

  1. $49
Lafòa is one of the best expressions of Sauvignon from Italy. Careful fruit selection and oak aging create a wine that is important aromatically, as well as structurally. Pristine flavors of citrus, peach and honeysuckle are backed by a creamy feel and a touch of -piquant spice.  — M.L.  (3/1/2012)

Colterenzio 2003 Riserva Siebeneich Merlot (Alto Adige)

  1. $22
Round and supple, plush and bright; here is a wine with deep and penetrating aromas of red berry, tobacco and spice. It’s intense and voluptuous—down to the thick streaks of glycerin on the glass—with firm structure, great taste and a long, spice-driven finish.  — M.L.  (3/1/2007)

Colterenzio 2009 Formigar Cornell Chardonnay (Alto Adige)

  1. $48
Formigar is a gorgeous and opulent Chardonnay with lavish aromas of mature fruit, apricot, honeysuckle and toasted almond. It’s super smooth and creamy in the mouth and those cool-climate, passion fruit flavors really pop on the finish.  — M.L.  (3/1/2012)

Colterenzio 2000 Cornell Merlot (Alto Adige)

  1. $35
You can taste the savory nuances of time and oak aging thanks to this wine’s gorgeous notes of forest floor, cassis, slate roof and licorice. The wine remains thick and austere on the palate with bitter tannins and a velvety finish. It promises to age beautifully for many more years.  — M.L.  (3/1/2007)

Colterenzio 2003 Mantsch Riserva Lagrein (Alto Adige)

  1. $20
There’s plenty of berry fruit upfront, cherry, vanilla and chopped herbs in particular. The wine has a forward, very full and round mouthfeel; it’s plush and ripe but not jammy or simple. Supported by solid structure and tannins.  — M.L.  (9/1/2007)
