Wines from South Tyrol
South Tyrol is a border region, influenced by the north as well as from the south, is linguistically and culturally flexible - something similar can also be said about viticulture. Old traditions meet innovative influences. One is increasingly relating to biological and biodynamic management, at least occasionally opens up the ideas of the natural wine movement and is a pioneer in growing mushroom -resistant varieties. Wine grows in South Tyrol from the Mediterranean Warm Lowerland on the border to Trentino up to the alpine cooling Vintschgau and the Eisack Valley. Due to the many topographical differences, the small wine country is divided into a variety of different, always exciting wine terrors. Working out this authentically is the claim of the best winegrowers in the region.

The Tonsur originates from the other side of the Eisack Valley, in a vineyard on the Ritten, the home mountain of Bozen. The site is known as Oberplatten. However, since Martin Gojer's wines are labeled as IGT or simply Vino Bianco, he cannot print the vineyard's name on the label. Instead, h...

Pranzegg: C ----- LL 2019
Wein
- €26,90
C——–L: The Hidden Vineyard Name The dash between C and L on the wine label isn’t a whimsical artistic choice by a bored winemaker. Instead, it serves to conceal the name of the vineyard, CAMPILL, the home vineyard of the Pranzegg estate, which has been in Martin Gojer’s family for generations...
Pranzegg: Caroline 2020
Wein
- €31,90

Wein

That a cross between Merzling and GM 6493 (whose parents are Muskat-Ottonel and Zarya Severa) can actually produce a great wine is still somewhat of a mystery. Piwis – fungus-resistant grape varieties – are not yet highly regarded in collective perception. However, thanks to Thomas Niedermayr, t...

Daniel Sigmund, Pinot Noir 2022
Wein
