  • Bottles produced: 400.000
  • Hectares: 59
In 1928, Peter Zemmer, the great uncle of the present winemaker of the same name, established the winery. Vineyards and wineries in the best locations around Cortina s.s.d.v. in the lowlands of Alto Adige have been part of the winery since then. Helmut Zemmer, the founder’s nephew, has always been working in the business and after the early death of his uncle in 1969, he took over the winery, which he has turned into one of the leading companies in the region. Now his son Peter continues the legacy in the interest of his family. Peter Zemmer’s precious experience, detailed and innovative knowledge, together with the perfect natural environment, guarantee the quality and the expressive character of the wines, in harmony with the surrounding nature.

Story This varietal, unique to Alto Adige, finds excellent growing conditions on the calcareous soils in the vicinity of the winery. The extraordinary location and tender care of the vineyard offer the best conditions for the production of varietal and extraordinary quality.
Yield per hectare 70 hl
Wine making The stems are immediately removed and the grapes are fermented at a constant temperature of 28 °C (82 °F) for about 7 days. The must is kept in regular contact with the skins through circulation pumping and gentle pressure from below. We thus achieve ideal results with the coloring from the skins and emphasize the fruitiness of the wine.
Aging After two gentle rackings, 70% of this Lagrein is aged for months in large oak barrels, and the remainder is aged in small casks of French oak (barriques) which are 2 - 3 years old. After blending, the bottles are filled and the wine is aged for some additional months in the bottle before it goes on sale.
