Alois Lageder Cason Bianco IGT 2020: A Climate-Conscious Innovation

Casòn Bianco IGT 2020 from Alois Lageder is a forward-thinking blend that reflects over four decades of experimentation and adaptation to the evolving climate. Originally prompted by early climate change predictions in the 1980s, the winemakers began cultivating new grape varieties like Viognier and Petit Manseng, which now form the heart of this unique wine. Petit Manseng is particularly well-suited to adverse weather, with its loose-berried clusters and thick skins offering natural resistance to disease. Meanwhile, Viognier, traditionally a southern grape, has developed a distinctive character in the cool, alpine climate of Alto Adige, bringing a fresh, aromatic edge to the blend. The result is a beautifully structured and vibrant wine, ideal for pairing with seafood, grilled vegetables, or light meats, and a perfect example of how innovation and sustainability can come together in modern winemaking.
