Description

The "Gschleier" area is certainly one of the most renowned South Tyrolean wine-growing areas. In fact, the company's vineyards are between 80 and 110 years old, a uniqueness in South Tyrolean viticulture. The vineyards are located at an altitude of 450 m above sea level on soils of limestone, clay and gravelly structure. The position and exposure of the slope guarantee optimal sunshine, resulting in a full-bodied wine with great ageing potential.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1923
  • Oenologist: Gerhard Kofler
  • Bottles produced: 1.350.000
  • Hectares: 220
Cantina Girlan was founded in 1923 in an ancient farmstead from the 16th century. Back then 24 winegrowers laid the foundation stones of what was later to become the winery we see today. The walls, steeped in ancient tradition, and the labyrinthine corridors of the cellar harbour the secrets of state-of-the-art winemaking technology and hold the ideal conditions for ageing our wines.

Today, about 200 greatly committed and motivated winegrowers and their families farm an area covering about 230 hectares of vineyards in the best production areas of Oltradige and Bassa Atesina. Our enologist, Gerhard Kofler, keeps in close personal contact with the winegrowers and provides his professional advice during the growing season. This beneficial exchange of expertise sets the foundations for producing highest quality wines. The wines are among the most awarded in the region and available in more than 40 countries worldwide.
