Winery Gottardi Mazzon
Egna

 

Pinot Noir has been cultivated in Mazzon since the 19th century. The reason for this is the ideal conditions, which are similar to those in Burgundy, the home of Pinot Noir, and thus guarantee a particularly high quality. Quality is also the basis on which Bruno and Alexander Gottardi wanted to build their dream of their own wine in 1986, and so they took the first important step towards the fulfilment of their wine dream with the purchase of the vineyard in Mazzon.

The idyllic vineyard grew and grew. Over the years, the vineyards were replanted and converted to wire frame cultivation. 9 years after the purchase, the time had finally come: 1995 the first vintage was vinified in the newly built modern cellar. In addition to Pinot Noir, Chardonnay (until 2006) and Gewürztraminer (until 2009) were also cultivated. From 2010, the vineyards have been 100% dedicated to Pinot Noir.

Winery Edmund Pomella
Cortaccia

Vines have been cultivated and processed into delicious wines on our farm for 3 generations.

Since 2016, I, Edmund Pomella, have been transforming our classic grape varieties into something special:

I was able to take over the old vines from the fathers, some of which are over 100 years old. As I don't want to do without the characteristics of an old vine, I decided to convert them to robust grape varieties. I also utilise the advantages of the traditional pergola- training- system in our sun-exposed, water-scarce location. I am happy to accept the extra work this entails. The biggest advantage of these "new" grape varieties is that there is no need for chemical pesticides. It's not just about wine - it's also about quality of life and respect for nature, the plants, the soil and all living creatures. I can fulfil my lifelong dream and follow my vocation. All of this enables me to create natural and wholesome wines with a great deal of love that are good for people and, above all, do no harm to nature.

Winery St. Quirinus
Caldaro

In the midst of vineyards, on a proud hill with a view of Lake Kaltern: this is a great place to live, a great place to grow wine. Centuries ago, the monks of the Bavarian monastery of Tegernsee in Oberplanitzing in Kaltern already grew their wine.  The vineyards supplied the wine that the Benedictines needed for themselves and the many high-class visitors. In 2011, we turned a long-held wish into reality: the construction of our house and wine cellar. The cellar was planned and built according to functional principles: Much is left to gravity, unnecessary waste of energy runs counter to the overall concept. As an organic and biodynamic winery, we are convinced that a single grape can "tell" everything about its life and flourishing in the vineyard. That it stores information about the soil conditions, about the living beings in the vineyard, about wind and weather. To take it with it into the wine - as a gift to us.

Distillery Ortler
Appiano

In 2011 Alexander Ortler was able to realise his dream of his own distillery at the Ortlerhof in Appiano. Starting with the raw product, he attaches great importance to quality. Sun-ripened fruits, exclusively from South Tyrol, are selected by hand in order to guarantee an optimal degree of ripeness of the raw material. The mashing process is carried out in accordance with the most modern techniques, in order to fully appreciate the variety of aromas. Clean mashing containers with air/fermenting valve keep harmful influences away and the mash is tempered so that an ideal fermentation process can take place.

Castelfeder
Cortina

Wine growing and wine have been the purpose of life of the Giovanett family for 3 generations. The Castelfeder Winery was founded in 1969 by Alfons Giovanett. The family Estate is situated in the towns of Egna and Cortina in the southern part of Alto Adige and works 60 hectares of vineyards, producing mainly withe wines and some local indigenous reds. Since 2011 the family is also dedicated to the Mosel region of Germany, cultivating the steep slope Riesling vineyard Sorentberg.

Colterenzio Winery
Appiano

Founded in 1960, the Colterenzio winery is one of the youngest winegrowers’ cooperative in Alto Adige. In 1960, 28 winegrowers left the historical Cornaiano winery based in the same little village to found their own winery – and named it after the hamlet they came from: Schreckbichl in German, Colterenzio in Italian. These winegrowers can be considered rebels but at the same time pioneers for right after the foundation of their own winery they were setting the course towards quality.
Today, 300 winegrowers together with the people working at Colterenzio continued this path.

The winegrowers grow their grapes on a total of 300 hectares; the vineyards are located in one of the best wine growing areas of Alto Adige, on altitudes from 230 to 650 meters. 12 different varieties are cultivated. 35% of the wines at Colterenzio are red, 65% are white. The Colterenzio winery cares about the environment, not only in the vineyards, but also in the cellar. In the vineyard this means sustainable viticulture and handpicked grapes. In the winery itself most of the electric energy used in the winery is supplied by a photovoltaic installation, 100% of the electric power is certified green and 70% of hot water requirements is provided by solar panels and a heat recovery system.

St. Michael-Eppan Winery
Appiano

St. Michael-Eppan winery has been creating great wines of extraordinary quality since 1907. Each vintage is cultivated in harmony with nature and the climate, in order to optimally express each individual grape variety. Work in the vineyard, the manual harvest and a modern production plant guarantee wines of the highest standard. In keeping with Alto Adige’s grand wine tradition, the St. Michael- Eppan wines all reflect their terroir through three lines: Classic: Made with archetypal grapes vinified in the traditional way, these wines embody freshness and genuine pleasure. The whites are aged in steel, and the reds in big barrels. Fallwind: The evening downdrafts of the Mendel Massif give the entire terroir of the St. Michael-Eppan Winery their character: they ensure the cool nights that give the grapes their extraordinary properties, shaping the fragrance, the unmistakable freshness and longevity of the wines. Sanct Valentin: The winery’s most prized line which made its first appearance back in 1986. Produced from the best hand-selected, limited yield vines to ensure best quality fruit: these are the raw materials necessary to give astounding minerality, beautiful bouquet and a remarkably elegant structure. Born and bred through the intuition of winemaker Hans Terzer, the Sanct Valentin wines are ambassadors of South Tyrolean excellence and appreciated by wine lovers around the world.

Elena Walch
Termeno

Elena Walch is a leading Alto Adige wine estate, in family hands, and belongs to the elite in Italian wine production, with international success. Encouraging quality and innovation, Elena Walch stood at the head of the Alto Adige quality revolution and has gained local and international esteem for her efforts. The philosophy of the estate is dedicated to its terroir – the idea that wines must be the individual expression of their soil, climate and cultivation in the vineyard – and that this must be maintained according to principles of sustainability and passed on to the next generation. The picturesque single estates of Castel Ringberg and Kastelaz are the heart of Elena Walch's vineyards, now working on a vineyard surface of 55ha. With sustainability being one of the core values at Elena Walch, the wines reflect the various terroirs they originate from. Finally, with the aim of making only the highest quality wines, Elena Walch has been honored with several national as well as international awards.

Winery Tramin
Termeno

The Tramin growers’ co-operative was founded in 1898, today is counted among the leading wineries of Italy. The strong contrast between hot days and cool night time temperatures develops floral and exotic aromas, spice, body and weight but with a firm backbone of acidity making them extremely elegant.

Alois Lageder Estate
Magrè

The family estate Alois Lageder is a synonym for the highest standard of quality in viticulture and winemaking, for a sustainable, holistic corporate philosophy, and for a wide spectrum of cultural and artistic activities. Founded in 1823 in the sixth generation of family ownership, the estate combines tradition and innovation. The Alois Lageder assortment of wines represents the extraordinary diversity of the Alto Adige region and its wide range of grape varieties. The wines are made from grapes grown in the vineyards owned by the Lageder family - about 55 hectares - which are cultivated according to biodynamic principles and from grapes grown in the vineyards owned by long-term partnering grape growers. This close cooperation with contractual vintners from different areas in Alto Adige represents a fundamental component of the company history. The sustainable approach to agriculture was extended also to the winery´s architecture. In fact, “Bringing nature indoors”, was the goal of the construction of the new cellars inaugurated in 1995. The project was soon recognized as the harbinger of a boom in contemporary architecture in Alto Adige.

Weingut Pfitscher
Montagna

Architecture creates wine experience. This is why we displaced the Pfitscher estate from the heart of Montagna into the middle of the vineyards – creating a new winery which merges discreetly with the landscape despite its modernity. Accurate and gentle handling of resources was important to us during the construction of our new winery. We question every single working step and consider which site offers the best potential. A down-to-earth character and much passion are fundamental, as well as innovation and nature-loving attitude. It is our goal to preserve traditions founded by our ancestors and meliorate them in continuation.

St. Pauls Winery
Appiano

Founded in 1907, St. Pauls Winery for generations has aimed at producing wines with clear identities that highlight the uniqueness of our terroirs.

Our areas distinguishes themselves through a natural diversity of exposures. On different altitudes (300 to 700 metres above sea level), and soil compositions each grape variety is able to find its perfect site. The hills from the last Ice Age contains numerous types of rocks: porphyry, clay, sand, loess, moraine residues and dolomite rocks dropped from Gantkofel, a vertical scarp towering behind St. Pauls. The grapes pick up on the elements contained in these different soils and pass them on to the wines. These turn out very fruity, succulent, full of strength.

The vigorous sun provides for perfectly ripened fruits, the cool fall winds from the mountains cause substantial temperature fluctuations during the maturation period that help to maintain the acidity. This results in high quality grapes that are picked by hand, according to old tradition – the best prerequisite for excellent quality.

Andi Sölva
Caldaro

Old vines, free spirit. Artisanal wines with character and quality.

As from 2005 he took over the parental vineyard in Kaltern; Since 2007 he vinifies his own wines, aspiring to demonstrate the uniqueness and variety of the region around the lake Kalterer See. He follows the evolution of the grapes, supports the natural processes and focuses his work exclusively on quality. It is his goal to harvest them at their best state or ripeness. It is a small business: He does much of the work himself, starting with the attentive observation of the vegetation, and ending with the meticulous manual hand-picking. Therefore, the quantity is limited to about 8000 bottles. The vineyards are located in and around Kaltern. The "Riegel Pulvernoa" (around 300m. a.s.l.) is planted with 80 to 100 year-old vine grape varieties of "Groß- and Mittervernatsch" and part of it is planted with Cabernet Franc and Tannat. The "Riegel Barleit" (around 400m. a.s.l.) is cultivated exclusively with "Weissburgunder" (pinot Blanc). The third site (around 420m. a.s.l.) lies in the district of Oberplanitzing and since 2008 it is planted with "Riesling". A special peculiarity is the collaboration - "Viribus Unitis" - with his colleague Norbert Kofler, from the vineyard Kiemberger in Terlan. Together they already developed a superb cuvee from Lagrein and Tannat, a real collector's item, and a delicate Rosè.

Tiefenbrunner
Cortaccia

The Tiefenbrunner family is fully committed to the wine-growing tradition since 1848. Today Christof and his wife Sabine stand behind the name Castel Turmhof winery. Their aim is to blend the traditions of many years with new and innovative developments. Thus, the preservation of the character of the grape varieties, and of the high quality of the grapes themselves, remain the basic principle of the work in the vineyards and the cellars. Altogether 25 hectares of vines are owned and cultivated by the Tiefenbrunner family. They also purchase grapes from surrounding vineyards with a total cultivated area of 40 hectares. The average annual production is 750,000 bottles, of which 70% are white wines and the remainder red.

Winery Loacker
Bolzano

It all started on a small hill above Bolzano in the heart of South Tyrol. In 1979, Rainer was bold enough to grow the first organic vineyard in the LOACKER wine estate – and was immediately labelled as out of his mind. He did not care. Quite the opposite: it gave his creative mind wings to fly even higher. And 40 years down the line, the LOACKER Wine Estate is still a pioneer or, as we like to say, ‘no stranger to organic wine’. Since 1998, son Hayo determines the fortunes of the wineries. Today, all 3 sons, Hayo, Franz Josef and Hannes, play a part in the LOACKER Wine Estates. They share their father's pioneering spirit, commitment, and rebel heart.

We march to the beat of our own drum: bold, unique, biodynamic wines. Our way. Since 1979.

This is Loacker’s little gem: the Skywine Pavilion overlooking Bolzano. Stop by to taste all Loacker wines, enjoy the view, and explore the Loacker universe for as long as you want.

Cantina Terlano
Terlano

Long life, complexity and character - these are the primary features of Cantina Terlano's quality wines. This is due primarily to the high mineral content of the Terlano soils, which has positive effects in terms of stability and gives the wines a striking freshness and full body to go with their long life. In 1893, 24 local wine growers set up a joint production, sales and marketing organisation. That was the beginning of one of the first winery co-operatives in South Tirol. Today the Terlano Winery has about a 120 members with an average cultivated area of 160 hectares, which makes it one of South Tyrol's smaller wineries. It's compact size is a big advantage in terms of quality assurance. The Cantina Terlano has a unique wine archive, housing some 100,000 bottles covering every vintage since 1955, as well as some earlier ones.

Cantina Girlan
Appiano

The Cantina Girlan was founded in 1923 in an ancient farmstead from the XVI century. Back then 23 winegrowers laid the foundation stones of what was later to become the winery we see today. The walls, steeped in ancient tradition, and the labyrinthine corridors of the cellar harbour the secrets of state-of-the-art winemaking
technology and hold the ideal conditions for ageing our wines. In 2010, work was started to modernize the cellar and bring it into line with modern technical standards.
Today, about 200 greatly committed and motivated winegrowers and their families farm an area covering about 220 hectares of vineyards in the best production areas of Oltradige and Bassa Atesina. Our enologist, Gerhard Kofler, keeps in close personal contact with the winegrowers and provides his professional advice during the growing season. This beneficial exchange of expertise sets the foundations for producing highest quality wines.
Our tenets
We pursue the following main objectives: we seek, on one hand, to showcase and promote the historic local grape varieties and on the other, to create impressive characterful wines using international grape varieties yet keeping them closely connected to the land. This is all achieved while respecting nature's flow and rhythms.

L. Psenner Distillery
Termeno

L. PSENNER Distillery – tradition and passion

Each drop of fine marc and fruit brandy is an expression of dedication and passion. The Psenner family discovers this unique world with ability since it's foundation in 1947. L. Psenner offers a wide range of superb quality distillates, all of which capture the flavours of fruit grown in South Tyrol. The mixture of Mediterranean and Alpine climate, the alternation of warm, sunny days and cool nights all result in sweet, fragrant fruit that ripens slowly with concentrated aromatic, firm pulp.

In 1952 Ludwig decided to diversify and apply his skills to the distillation of fruit brandies. Today his grandson Werner continues the distillery's story, which established itself among the elite of the world's producers, confirmed by awards and the praise heaped upon its products by international experts.

Winery Haderburg
Salorno

Magnificent winery at the southern edge of South Tyrol

A small alley with cypresses and roses leads the visitor to the „Hausmannhof“, a 400-year-old residence within the vineyards. It’s here where the Ochsenreiter family grows their wines after biodinamic principles. Modern machines and ancient cellar walls make white wines like Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Gewürztraminer get juicy and perfect balanced, while red wines like Pinot Noir and Merlot-Cabernet develop their best potential in oak barriques. The family owns a second winery in Valle d’Isarco, the „Obermairlhof“. Sylvaner and Riesling grow here and conquer with freshness and minerality. But Haderburg is famous for the „bubbles“. Since 1977 the winery produces high-quality sparkling wines made with their own Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes. Four different sparkling wines are the result. Various wine guides acknowledge the quality with awards - like for example „Best Italian Sparkling Wine“.

Ansitz Rynnhof
Termeno

The history of the Rynnhof can be traced back to the Middle Ages. In 1438 the indication of origin "an der Rynnen" appeared for the first time in a document. The property probably takes its name from an open water channel that once ran by. In 1479 the Prince-Bishop of Trento made the estate over as a fiefdom, with its wine-growing lands being mentioned even at that time. Winemaking therefore has a long tradition at the Rynnhof. At the Rynnhof we see to the development of our wine from the vine right to the bottle. Winegrowing is the centerpiece of our agriculture business. Since 2011 our vineyards have been cultivated according to the requirements of organic farming.

Tenuta Kornell
Terlano

Over 2000 years of viticulture tradition characterize the area of Siebeneich near Terlan. The Kornell Vineyard blends harmonically into the countryside that surrounds it.The warming porphyry rock and steeply rising vineyards catch the sun by day and enjoy cool temperatures at night. Nothing can be achieved without nature, without the perfect terroir for healthy growth with exciting grapes. That is the basis of all else. Passion and a huge sense of responsibility shape the work of Florian Brigl and his young team. This results in wines with a Mediterranean flair, unique charm and down-to-earth character.

Winery A. von Elzenbaum

The vineyards are unique to the area, because they are protected to the west by Mount Gantkofel, which is made of calcareous stone. They cover an area of 200° from south-south-east to east at an altitude between 260-340 metres above sea level. For centuries, with passion and dedication, winemakers have captured the character of Andriano's distinctive terroir. Andriano's cooler climatic conditions produce wines with crisp acidity, unique complexity, freshness and elegance.

Tenuta Klaus Lentsch
Appiano

The winery Klaus Lentsch was founded in 2008 by the winemaker Klaus Lentsch. For Klaus the dream to possess his own winery was fulfilled with the purchase of the Hemberg farm at Campodazzo. He started his career with three wines in the assortment and a lot has happened since then. The amount of vineyards growed and he introduced new varieties in the assortment.  In the middle of the vineyards of St. Pauls Klaus Lentsch found in 2013 his permanent home. The spacious new building of the winery Klaus Lentsch stands out with clear lines from the lush greenery all around. A welcoming place to explore the variety of wines from the Valle Isarco, Oltradige and Bassa Atesina. The best conditions are necessary for the winemaker Klaus Lentsch to realize his high quality standards. For him, an enthusiast of wine, the pursuit of quality begins in the vineyard, directly with the soil. Perfection and attention to detail then continue in the cellar and in the marketing in the wine shop Amperg.

Nals Margreid Winery
Nalles

From a total of 370 acres of land, 140 winegrowers bring top quality grapes to the Nals Margreid Winery. Ecological awareness and a sense of quality influence their work and lead to the excellent harvests from which remarkable wines arise. The winegrowers’ vineyards of the Winery Nals Margreid extend from Nals, a little town between Bozen and Meran (Merano), all the way to Margreid in the sunny, southern reaches of the region, allowing to exploit a remarkable variety of terroirs and locations. Like the excellent wines produced by it, the winery, modernized in 2011, is an expression of the terroir. Thanks to the joining of historical structures and the high standards of modern wine production, a complex of buildings evolved, that perfectly expresses the qualities.

Brunnenhof
Egna

"Rooted in the earth", that's an accurate description of the way we are. Every ounce of our experience, soul and energy has been invested in our wines, the Pinot Nero Riserva and the Gewürztraminer.

Franz Haas
Montagna

Since its foundation in 1880 the Franz Haas winery passed through seven generations with every firstborn Franz Haas. The winery has been focusing since the very start on expressing the quality of its grapes at their best. Today, Franz Haas works with grapes coming from 55 ha of vineyards between 240m and 1.150m asl. in zones of different microclimatic and geological conditions. Special attention has always been given in using the minimum and most selective chemical substances during cultivation and fertilization. Pinot Nero is the great passion of Franz Haas and therefore it is not surprising that the selection ”Schweizer“ of Pinot Nero is released only during the best seasons. Moscato Rosa and the Cuvée Manna are also among our most famous wines. A distinctive feature are our colorful and expressive labels, they are all the artwork of the famous Italian painter and architect Riccardo Schweizer.

Winery Kurtatsch
Cortaccia

Vineyards on breathtakingly steep slopes from 220-900m a.s.l. - such a large difference in altitude within one municipality is unique in Europe. The low elevations are among the warmest in Alto Adige and are perfect for important red wines. On the high-altitude sites above the main village of Kurtatsch, the white varieties find ideal conditions. The wide array of elevations and soil types dictates the philosophy of the province’s southernmost cooperative: to produce distinctive wines that reflect their growing site, their terroir, in the best way possible.

A young team, since 2014 led by the winery’s president, Andreas Kofler, has oriented the winery towards sustainable management. Thanks to the 190 small-structured family farms that cultivate 190 hectares of vineyards, the best grape material for each individual location can be selected. This and the precise vinification of the individual vineyard sites create distinctive and unmistakable wines which truly reflect their place of origin. The result: fresh, mineral white wines from high locations and long-lasting red wines from warm locations. Vineyard by Vineyard. Wine by Wine.

Steflhof
Caldaro
Seeperle
Caldaro

We - Ingrid and Arthur Rainer - have gone the indirect way, looked around and permanently learned. As a consequence, we want to go an open, modern and future-oriented way. In 2013 a new milestone was set. For the first time all the grapes of the family-owned vineyards were vinified in our cellars.

Ritterhof Winecellar
Caldaro

Embeded in the midst of mountains and vineyards along the Southtyrolean Wine-Road there is the vine-village Kaltern and exactly here, on Wine-Road Nr.1 is situated the vinery Ritterhof. The small vinery is lead with devotion by the family of Roner from Tramin. From generation to generation passed traditions, harmony with nature in combination with latest technology are the base of the production of fruity white wines and full bodied red wines. The careful cultivation of the vineyards in harmony with nature is the basis of the vinery's philosophy.

Winery Peter Sölva
Caldaro

The Peter Sölva winery is one of the oldest winegrowing businesses in Kaltern-Überetsch. For 10 generations, our family has dedicated itself to this passion of cultivating and vinifying grapes in harmony with nature and with respect. Today we produce 60% red wines in our valley locations around Lake Kaltern between 224 - 400 metres above sea level and 40% white wines in our hillside locations between 400 - 600 metres above sea level.

Our family history has always been at the centre of our work and still stands today with the historical names DeSILVA (signature of the soil, old vines) and AMISTAR (signature of the family, memory of our Spanish roots) as the expression and character of our philosophy.

Our wine is the culmination of centuries of dedication to viticulture in our family with respect for nature, attention to detail and understanding of the challenges of the future.

By the way, here you can find not only wine, but also the one or the other grappa: Amistar Grappa, Grappa Gewürztraminer, Grappa Moscato Giallo and Brandy.

Weingut T. Pichler
Caldaro
Weingut Unterhofer Thomas
Caldaro
Klosterhof
Caldaro

The winegrower and cellarmaster Andergassen Oskar and his son Hannes are focusing on maintaining tradition in combination with modern cellar techniques. Harvests by hand, gently pressing processes, controlled fermentations and the aging process in wood tanks ensure wines of high quality. Since 1999 we are producing red and white wine. The whole production is processed, vinified and bottled in our winery.

Castel Sallegg
Caldaro

“only if you truly love something, you can persist and continue improving. Taking care of the vineyards during the seasons, manual harvest, detailed work in the cellar does not makes us tiered but stimulates us …” For more the 100 years, awareness of history, tradition and responsibility has been rooted deeply in the family of the Counts von Kuenburg. Here in best area surrounding Lake Caldaro, on the softly sloping hillsides and in this ideal climate the Sallegg Castle’s wines are produced. The unique interaction of the landscape, the composition of the soil and the mutual influences of Mediterranean and Alpine climates give the wines of Sallegg Castle their incomparable character.

Kettmeir
Caldaro

For almost a century, Kettmeir has been an important component of the Alto Adige wine tradition. Founded in 1919 at the end of the First World War by Giuseppe Kettmeir, the Caldaro winery has traversed the revolutions of the Twentieth century to achieve considerable accomplishments. It was, for example, one of the first wineries to explore the path of international markets; to have radically transformed production techniques during the economic boom years; to have embarked on qualifying production ranges by promoting bottled products rather than the traditional sale of cask wine; to have imagined a future for the production of sparkling wine choosing the long Metodo Charmat fermentation system followed by the Metodo Classico (tradition method). Throughout it all, the winery maintained a very close relationship with the surrounding natural, economic and social environment, preserving the bond with the one-in-a-million legacy of its territory. One example of this is the actual wine cellar which has kept its original architectural style of the first post-war period in testimony of the value of its roots; another much more important example for us is the bond with its consultants, who have continued to work with Kettmeir, generation after generation, since 1919, applying strict qualitative protocols.

Winery Caldaro
Caldaro

Cantina Kaltern has its roots in Kaltern’s four original winery cooperatives. 1986 saw the merger of the Erste Kellerei and the Neue Kellerei (founded in 1900 and 1925 respectively), and in 1992 the Bauernkellerei and the Jubiläumskellerei (founded in 1906 and 1908) also merged to form Kellerei Kaltern. The last step in the creation of a combined winery was taken in 2016. Today Cantina Kaltern it is a co-op winery of 700 families that look after the almost 490 ha of vineyards. The winery is a landmark for the wines produced in the Lake Kaltern area and the wine under the famous appellation of “Kalterersee” travels the world. They offer moments of relaxed, light heartedness and trigger the wanderlust of experience this unique region. The winery gets deeply involved in the preservation of the local traditions, the rural culture and the land of Caldaro as a whole, land which has always been heritage of the locals.

Tenuta H. Lentsch
Bronzolo

Stroblhof Winery
Appiano

Stroblhof is a farm (‘maso’) with a long viticultur tradition: as early as 1600 documents mention winegrowing at this estate. It seems that from these early times, grapes were grown here at the base of the steep cliffs of the Mendelpass and benefitted from the optimal soils and unique diurnal temperatures variation. We continue to work hard at this farm – both in the vineyards and the cellars – with the single minded scope of producing top quality wine. The low and select production allows us to guarantee the high quality of the wines. In fact, from 5.5 hectares, we only produce a maximum of 40,000 bottles, half of which is white, the other red. The altitude of 500 meters above sea level is an additional advantage to producing wines of unique character, good acidity, and with a good aging potential. Stroblhof ranks with the top estates of South Tyrol and is the founding member of the small growers association, “Vignaioli dell’Alto Adige.”

Hans Rottensteiner Winery
Bolzano

The Rottensteiner family is one of the most ancient families of South Tyrol and its connection to the wine here has lasted for many generations. This is also reflected in the family name, which derives from the red-colored rock of the mountains around Bolzano, the porphyry. Founded in 1956 by Hans Rottensteiner the winery is now leaded by his son Toni and his grandson Hannes. The return to our ancestry and to the continuation of traditions are important guideposts for the daily work.

Griesbauerhof
Bolzano

Griesbauerhof winery lies at the foot of the hills of St. Magdalena and St. Justina in the suburb of Rentsch in Bozen. Since 1785, the Mumelter family has been shaping the history of Griesbauerhof winery and Georg Mumelter understands this tradition as an important task to carry out. He aims at preserving and handing down the decennial expertise of his family going on to write the history of Griesbauerhof winery by his own hand. Tradition and expertise pulsate here at 300 metres above sea level following a yearly rhythm, from farming to harvest in the vineyard, up to bottling and ageing in the winery cellar. In the newly built tasting room, wood and bright shapes create an ideal atmosphere to taste and fully enjoy wine. A distinctive trait of the winery: to produce Isarcus, the branches of the vine are partially cut and grapes are allowed to wither. This is the reason why the moments of cut and harvest are so crucial.

Today, all 3.5 hectares are Guyot vineyards.

K. Martini & Sohn
Appiano

Our family company was founded in 1979 by Gabriel and his father Karl. Both had been working for several years in the wine sector before deciding to start their own business. To create a winery from nothing was a great deal of hard work. The first bottles were filled, closed and labelled by hand (we are pleased that nowadays machines do the work for us). In the vineyards both we and our suppliers pay attention to high quality. In the winery itself it is entirely up to us to produce good wine from the precious grapes. From the start our business was very small, so there was actually no alternative other than to let our wines speak for themselves. Only quality and friendly service justify the existence of a small family company!

Thurnhof

Thurnhof ist a small wine estate comprising 3.5 hectares (8,64 acres) of vineyards located on the south-facing slopes of the Virgl hill to the south-east of Bolzano. The warm climate of the Bolzano valley basin, with high temperatures in summer and autumn and plenty of sunshine enable even the most late-ripening grape varieties to produce perfectly mature fruit on a regular basis. The soils are porous, consisting of moraine debris and supply the vines with ample nourishment and water. We are firmly convinced that concentrated wines can only be produced by low yieldings vines, whereby yields are restricted by short pruning, thinning out the grapes in summer and through time consuming work controlling excess foliage and shoots. In the winery we combine state-of-the-art technology with taditional manual methods aimed at preserving all the natural aromas, flavours and other substances which have accumulated in the grapes in order to express them in the finished wine. The resulting wines are exploding with fruit and varietal character, held together by formidable structure.

Used as a wine cellar until the 80's, now you can find selected wines from South Tyrol and the most popular Italian growing areas under the original wooden ceiling.

The Weinhaus manager Alfons Palma gained his in-depth expertise thanks to a year-long experience and with different expert courses. Thanks to his feeling for high-quality and exclusive products, in addition to a huge selection of wines, he also offers distillates and selected delicacies.
