Franz Haas is not just a winery, it is not just a brand. Franz Haas is a man, a family who has been producing wine for seven generations, and for seven generations has put into its wines the same philosophy of life: the constant and endless pursuit of perfection. Each Franz Haas with his own touch and style.
According to Franz Haas, science and calculations are indeed necessary to obtain superb wines, but it is love, passion, and determination that are essential to give them character and complexity.
It takes art, the one you have in your blood, a loving creative genius, like the one of Franz Haas VII, who today leads the winery with his team. Read more

| Climate | Lagrein, one of South Tyrol's indigenous grape varieties, grows in sunny areas at altitudes ranging from 220 to 250 metres above sea level. Exposure: South and southwest. Thanks to this microclimate, Lagrein, as a late variety, reaches full maturity. |

| Wine making | After careful selection in the vineyard, the grapes are gently destemmed and fermented in open vats. To avoid excessive tannin extraction, not too many pumpovers and fulling are carried out during vinification. |
