White wines are grown for the most part. I love the Pinot Blanc and Pinot Gris from here or a wonderful Sauvignon Blanc. For red wines, Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot. My favourite winemaker is Alois Lageder there. Marvellous wines and highly recommended. My one and only rosé wine comes from the Manincor winery. I have yet to find another that comes close to it. Almost the entire vineyard bears the D.O.C. (or D.O.P.) seal of quality! This means Denominazione di origine controllata (Denominazione d'Origine Protetta) and is a "controlled designation of origin" for Italian wines. Among other things, it regulates the permitted yield per hectare as well as the authorised growing areas and permitted grape varieties. Wines with the DOC seal of approval may not be bottled in containers larger than five litres.
From Nals past the provincial capital of Bolzano through the Überetsch and Unterland regions to Salurn, 16 wine villages contribute significantly to the fascination of the South Tyrolean Wine Route with their traditions, ideas and the people who live and work here. Travel there and enjoy the wonderful wine and the indescribable region! Kisses 😘
