From this winery
  • Start up year: 1923
  • Oenologist: Gerhard Kofler
  • Bottles produced: 1.350.000
  • Hectares: 215
The Girlan Cantina was founded in 1923 by 23 vintners congregating at this historic country estate (dating back to the 16th century) in the region of Alto Adige. Back then – 90 years ago – with an annual production of a mere 2,700 hectoliters of wine.

It now has 200 wine-grower members, for a total area of 220 hectares of vineyards in the best growing zones of the Oltradige and Bassa Atesina.

Girlan – first mentioned in historical documents dating back to A.D.1085 – has always been a famed wine-growing area. The vineyards are located at altitudes from 250 to 550m above sea level, in different soil types that form an ideal environment for growing numerous native and International varieties. Besides the location, the vintner, too, is an important factor. Our winemaker, Gerhard Kofler, maintains a close and personal contact with our wine-growers. This exchange of information and experience is the cornerstone of our continuous efforts to produce quality wines.

We recommend serving this wine with shellfish, flavoured cheeses and desserts, such as strudel. Also a good match with spicy dishes and sweet and sour creations with an Asian touch.
