With cheese
Stilfser
Local tradition For the more aged wheels Qualigeo recommends Alto Adige Lagrein. Its medium to full body and medium to firm tannin give a longer-aged, stronger cheese a wine of matching weight, and the fat of the paste softens its grip.
Alta Badia Hartkäse
Our pick Mila describes an intense hard cheese with toasted and potato notes and a short, firm, melting paste. A full-bodied Lagrein Riserva, aged in oak, brings depth and firm tannin to match the cheese's concentration.
History
Glogglhof's Lagrein Riserva is drawn from the family's best Lagrein parcel on the Bolzano soil belt, where the variety achieves serious depth. The Riserva format with extended oak ageing has been part of the modern portfolio since the 1990s.
