The unique mix of Alpine and Mediterranean influences making South Tyrol this special, gives the South Tyrolean wine an incomparable character. Be it in Eisacktal or Vinschgau, in Bozen and environs or in South Tyrol – the local wine producers and wineries perfectly combine tradition and innovation creating excellent wines with personal characteristics.

White wines

The Gewürztraminer is an autochthonous grape variety whose name derives from the South Tyrolean wine village Tramin. The wine captivates through an unforgettable aroma and its delicate scent of roses.

In addition, Pinot Grigio, Pinot Bianco and Chardonnay are other frequent varieties. Sauvignon, Müller Thurgau, Sylvaner, Kerner, Veltliner and Riesling like the South Tyrolean soils and the climate as well. All South Tyrolean white wines have a mineral freshness and a marked varietal character.

Red wines

Particularly popular and dominating red wines as concerns the growing surface are the autochthonous varieties Vernatsch and Lagrein, growing in Bozen and environs as well as in Southern South Tyrol. The South Tyrolean Vernatsch is fruity and fresh. However, its character varies according to is growing area: a St. Magdalener for instances tastes differently as a Kalterersee or a Meraner. The Lagrein, one of the oldest grape varieties of Italy, impresses with a velvety volume and expressiveness.

Among the classic red wines, the Blauburgunder is grown most frequently but also Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet France thrive in South Tyrol. Rosenmuskateller is a real rarity – a complex sweet wine with intense scent of roses.
