Alois Lageder Gaun Chardonnay

The name Gaun dates back to the 17th century and the family of the Barons Gaun, the first owners of the Löwengang estate. In 1934, when Alois III saw the excellent results produced by the Chardonnay grape variety in the dolomitic limestone soil on the Magrè talus cone, he decided to purchase Löwengang. 150 years ago, Chardonnay and other international grape varieties were planted there. First produced with the 2009 vintage, Gaun is made from Chardonnay from various vineyard sites in the area surrounding Magrè, all of which are grown in soils with high levels of dolomitic limestone.
