About this wine
Vineyard and terroir
The red grapes come from hillside vineyards in Cortaccia and valley-floor sites in Magrè, spanning 210–400 metres. Cortaccia contributes chalk-gravel moraine soils, while Magrè has sandy calcareous alluvial soils. The vineyard overview identifies south-to-southeast exposure for Entiklar and Margreider Leiten and valley-floor sites around Magreid, Punggl and Kurtinig. Plantings date from 1980 onward and are trained to pergola and Guyot systems at 3,500–7,000 vines per hectare. Yield is 55–70 hl/ha.
