South Tyrol – where the Alps shape the wine
Hardly any wine region in Italy combines so many contrasts as harmoniously as South Tyrol. Steep slopes, crystal-clear mountain air, and a sun that shines on the vines for many hours every day – these are the ingredients for wines that possess both freshness and depth. Here, in the northernmost tip of Italy, alpine coolness and Mediterranean warmth meet, and it is precisely this tension that makes South Tyrolean wines so unmistakable. At Vinoscout, you will find over 140 carefully selected products from this fascinating region – from elegant white wines to powerful red wines.
Wine style and character: precision meets soul
South Tyrolean wines are characterized by extraordinary aromatic clarity. The large temperature differences between day and night ensure that the grapes retain their natural acidity while simultaneously developing fully ripe aromas. The result is white wines of impressive minerality and liveliness as well as red wines that, despite their structure, never appear heavy. Whether you have a fresh Pinot Blanc, an aromatic Gewürztraminer, or a profound Lagrein in your glass – the alpine origin is always palpable.
Important origins and producers
Cantina Terlan – icon of white wine culture
The Cantina Terlan is one of the most renowned cooperatives in South Tyrol and stands worldwide for extraordinary white wines with aging potential. In the Vinoscout range, you will find highlights such as the Quarz Sauvignon DOC, which delights with its volcanic minerality and cutting freshness, the Porphyr Lagrein DOC Riserva as a powerful representative of the red side of South Tyrol, as well as the impressive Nova Domus Terlaner Cuvée DOC Riserva Magnum – a wine that shows how complex and long-lived South Tyrolean white wines can be.
Cantina Andrian – Chardonnay at the highest level
Also from the heart of South Tyrol comes the Doran Chardonnay Riserva DOC Magnum from Cantina Andrian. Creamy, multi-layered, and of great length – this wine proves that South Tyrol counts among the best Chardonnay addresses in Europe.
Ferrari – Trentodoc and the art of sparkling wine
Bordering to the south lies Trentino with the sparkling wine appellation Trentodoc, which is also represented in this category. Ferrari is the undisputed reference here. The Giulio Ferrari Riserva del Fondatore Trentodoc is considered one of the great sparkling wines of Italy – a prestige cuvée of extraordinary depth. Alongside it, you will find the Riserva Lunelli Trentodoc as well as the Perlé Trentodoc Magnum as elegant alternatives for special occasions.
