Misto Mare IGT 2025

Wine description for Misto Mare IGT 2025 by Alois Lageder

Colour & appearance

A clear, very pale corail – as delicate as the first glimmer of morning sun breaking through the Dolomites. This unusual colour already hints that white and red grapes have come together here in an unconventional way.

Nose

Youthful and inviting, it offers aromas of citrus zest, green and yellow apple and young peach. These are joined by white blossoms, a hint of herbs and fine yeasty notes, while splashes of grapefruit and preserved lemon provide a piquant freshness.

Palate

Friendly and approachable, juicy and gentle with a ripe, lively and sensual acidity. Orchard fruit meets a touch of star fruit and citrus. The wine remains uncomplicated and balanced, savoury with a slight phenolic grip and a fine saltiness that lingers piquantly on the finish.

Finish

The finish is shaped by that salty piquancy and a light grip that gently coats the tongue – a dry, clear close that invites the next sip without weighing heavily.

Terroir & origin

The grapes come from vineyards across South Tyrol, at altitudes between 210 and 740 metres above sea level, where Mediterranean influences meet Alpine coolness. This difference in altitude and the potpourri of all the region’s common soil types lend the wine its multi-layered liveliness.

Grape variety & vinification

A true mishmash of more than 14 different grape varieties – both white and red. Fermentation and ageing took place in stainless steel with partial malolactic fermentation, which preserves the freshness and brings the fruit to the fore.

Food recommendations

Ideal with grilled vegetables, seafood or a light pasta dish with lemon and herbs. It also shows its best side as a companion to antipasti or a summer picnic.

Special features

Misto Mare is a living example of the experimental joy at Alois Lageder: a cuvée that captures the diversity of South Tyrol in a single glass – unpretentious, vibrant and, at just 11.5% vol., a wine for long, bright summer evenings.
