COLTERENZIO ALTO ADIGE, ITALY
The Colterenzio winegrowers’ co-operative was founded by 28 vintners in 1960. Over the years other passionate viticulturalists from diversified micro-zones in the area joined the collective, and today nearly 300 members cultivate approximately 300 hectares of vineyards. Today it’s been recognized as one of the best wineries in Italy. Absolute dedication to grape growing is the priority among all Colterenzio vintners. From first planting the vines to harvesting the grapes by hand, they believe that the work in the vineyard is determined by the rhythm of nature. The resulting wines unite crisp, Alpine fragrance with Mediterranean spice and warmth.
