The Chardonnay Gaun of Alois Lageder is a white wine of medium structure, produced with grapes from organic and biodynamic agriculture. The Chardonnay Gaun of Alois Lageder shows a beautiful golden yellow color with greenish reflections. In the nose it develops an intense and aromatic bouquet, with aromas of yellow apple, mango and lemon zest. Elegant and medium-bodied wine, its taste is lively, sapid and characterized by a great freshness and a persistent finish. The Chardonnay Gaun of Alois Lageder is perfect to drink in combination with hot fish starters or second courses of fish or white meat.

The Alois Lageder winery was founded in Albions, a small mountain village in Val Gardena, in 1823. Johann Lageder started wholesale wine sales in 1924 and later his sons and grandchildren decided to buy vineyards and to produce wine themselves. With Alois Lageder, the company became a reference point in South Tyrol and synonymous of quality and excellence, producing wines that best represent the personality of the territory and the balance between tradition and innovation. Particular attention is paid to sustainable and ecological criteria: currently the 50 hectares of vineyards owned by the family are entirely cultivated with biodynamic methods. The company also collaborates with a certain number of selected winegrowers in South Tyrol: the extension of the vineyards covers further 110 hectares, a quarter of which are cultivated with biodynamic methods.
