LR

To craft an exclusive, distinctive, terroir-driven wine, capable of making very demanding customers, excited about it, and enhancing Colterenzio‘s brand, at the same time“ - this was the idea of Luis Raifer behind LR. After a few years and many tests on the best cuvées, LR has finally been released. Chardonnay, Pinot Bianco and Sauvignon Blanc are the varietals of this elegant and unique cuvée, which refines on the fine lees and in oak, and is presented in an extraordinary, sophisticated packaging.
