THE COMPANY

Weinberghof winery is in Termeno, on the Wine road, and it is here that Christian Bellutti, born in 1980, vinifies the grapes grown at his small Alpine farm. He has a very precise style, with clean, elegant and fresh wines that reflect the character of the individual varieties in the terroirs, the year, and where the GewĂ¼rztraminer, which is in its native area here, reaches its peak. He works in a skilled and dedicated manner, and he blends modern technology and attention of the details to obtain extraordinary results. He is a member of the Alto Adige small winemakers’ association, and both in the vineyard and in the winery, Christian strives for quality without any compromises. The whites and the Kalteersee are vinified in stainless steel tanks, while the Lagrein remains for a short while in second passage barriques used for the Lagrein Riserva produced only in some years and only in small quantities. In the landscape of the South Tyrolean Unterland, which is dominated by large cooperatives, Christian is the best representative of the wines from this vine-growing area, which is among the most dedicated in Northern Italy.

Italy - 

Trentino-Alto Adige

Bassa Atesina

South Tyrol, the southern end of the Tyrol, is the northernmost wine region in Italy and one of the most vigorous and interesting. Production is concentrated in the plain of the Adige Valley, with an altitude ranging from 200 to nearly 1,000 meters and showing endless variations in climate and in the varieties of grapes grown. The climate here is mild, the soils slightly clayey and high in limestone.
