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.
