Manincor

In 1991 Count Michael Goëss-Enzenberg took over Manincor from his uncle. At that time the estate supplied grapes to the wine-growers’ cooperatives in Caldaro and Terlano.

With his passion and training, Count Michael was well equipped to launch his own wines – with a declared focus on top-quality wines in a distinctive Manincor style.

He began with the vineyards: Quality was improved through a policy of strictly limited yields and near-natural husbandry. In 1996 the first Manincor wines – six of them – were produced in the estate’s own cellar: Schiava (Kalterersee), Moscato Giallo, Pinot Bianco, Sophie, Mason and Cassiano. 130,000 bottles were filled in 1997.

New cellar. Six years after the foundation of the winery, an eighteen-month period of construction began, and in 2004 the new "Cellar in the Vineyard", designed by Walter Angonese and Rainer Köberl, was opened. It is an expression of our philosophy of life and work and a magnet for people with an interest in wine and architecture.
