Siebeneich Merlot Riserva
The Siebeneich Merlot Riserva shows how seriously South Tyrol takes international grape varieties: a dry, dense red wine with depth that has taken its time to develop before being released for sale as a Riserva.
The Kellerei Schreckbichl, better known as Colterenzio, is one of South Tyrol's renowned cooperative wineries, based in Girlan near Eppan. The vineyards around Siebeneich benefit from warm valley soils and cool nights due to their proximity to the mountains – ideal conditions for giving Merlot both structure and ripeness.
In the glass, you can expect dark berry fruits such as blackberry and black cherry, underpinned by a spicy note reminiscent of bay leaf and black pepper. On the palate, the wine is juicy and dense, with ripe, well-integrated tannins and a long, slightly earthy finish.
Serve it at 16 to 18 °C with braised beef roast, grilled rack of lamb, or aged mountain cheese. It also pairs well with a platter of South Tyrolean speck and hard cheese – a wine for a quiet evening at the table.

The Winery
Kellerei Schreckbichl has stood for South Tyrolean winemaking art since 1960. Back then, 26 winegrowers joined forces to be more independent and to be able to manage their vineyards even better together. Over the decades, this idea has become a success story: today, the cooperative has around 300 members who together cultivate about 300 hectares of vineyards – between 230 and 650 meters above sea level, in one of the best locations in South Tyrol.
Tradition and modernity go hand in hand here: careful manual labor in the vineyard, natural cultivation, and state-of-the-art cellar technology complement each other to create a business that not only preaches responsibility but lives it – for example with its own photovoltaics and heat recovery in the cellar. These high altitudes between Alpine air and Mediterranean warmth give the grapes exactly the freshness and ripeness that makes South Tyrolean wines so special.
The range includes Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, and Gewürztraminer as well as Pinot Noir, Merlot, and the local Vernatsch – authentic wines with a clear regional expression. Schreckbichl is therefore much more than a cooperative: it is an association with an attitude that shows how community and quality can strengthen each other.
