Carlotto: wines from South Tyrol with authentic character
The Carlotto collection brings together a selection of wines that accurately tell the identity of South Tyrol, balancing elegance, freshness, and aromatic depth. On this page, you will find labels such as Pinot Noir “Filari di Mazzon” DOC 2018, Schiava Vigneti delle Dolomiti IGT, and the two vintages of Lagrein “di ora in ora” Riserva, 2017 and 2019, all expressions of a coherent and territorial style.
The profile of the selection
Carlotto wines stand out for their clear and recognizable imprint, capable of enhancing the typical grape varieties of the area with balance and precision. The Pinot Noir highlights finesse, depth, and structure; the Schiava interprets the territory in a smoother and more immediate way, with a fragrant and versatile sip; the Lagrein, in its Riserva versions, offers greater intensity, substance, and complexity, while maintaining a connection to the South Tyrolean area.
Territory and grape varieties
This collection is ideal for those seeking Italian mountain red wines, where the climate and temperature variations help define clearer aromas and very elegant drinkability. South Tyrol is recognized here through consistent grape varieties and denominations: Alto Adige DOC, Vigneti delle Dolomiti IGT, and the cru Filari di Mazzon, a name that evokes one of the most appreciated areas for Pinot Noir. It is a proposal that speaks to those who desire territorial wines that are precise and suitable for refined consumption.
When to choose Carlotto wines
The Carlotto selection is suitable for both everyday dining and more important occasions. The Schiava pairs well with simple dishes and informal moments; the Pinot Noir naturally accompanies more structured preparations; the Lagrein Riserva is perfect for those seeking a deeper red, to be savored attentively or paired with flavorful dishes. In all cases, the common thread remains stylistic coherence and the ability to tell the territory without excess.
