At the Turmbachhof in Appiano (built around 1190 and formerly the residence of the court clerk), our family has been involved for nine generations in the production and processing of foodstuffs, which originally came mainly from the cultivation of our own land. The wine, for example, has always been pressed from the own grapes. A mother of vinegar was made with particular care in porphyry, which gave the vinegar a special vitality. In 1966, Alfons Walcher built a distillery at the Turmbachhof, whose products today are distributed successfully in five continents. Committed to the tradition of superior taste and following their professional passion, in 2017 the Walcher brothers decided to set up their own gourmet food factory in Caldaro. The aim of the new branch is reviving old recipes with new technology and expressing the unique taste of South Tyrol‘s South. In order to achieve this goal, the family relies above all on organically grown raw materials and gentle processing avoiding any additives.

The fruit cooperative frubona Obstgenossenschaft Terlan originally arises from six cooperatives in the Bozen-Etsch Valley area. It has existed in its present form since 2010. 426 members cultivate a total of 1,154.55 ha of net area. In the shop you can buy apples.

The history of the Psenner Distillery is indelibly characterised by that of the company's founder, Ludwig Psenner, born in 1920 in the famous South Tyrolean wine village of Tramin, the place which has given its name to the world's favourite aromatic grape variety, Gewürztraminer. Ludwig Psenner's life story is one of a straightforward and sincere man who emanated a catching vigour. At an early age he threw himself into the craft of distilling, delving into the recondite processes and mysteries involved. Then at the age of 27 he founded his own distillery, installing his first bain marie still.

The estate lies at the heart of the Lagrein and Pinot Nero area in the historic village centre of Auer: it is run by Clemens Waldthaler, the seventh generation of his family to do so. The high quality of the wines is the result of the consistent quality philosophy applied both in the vineyard and the cellar. 30% of production is represented by white wines such as Pinot Bianco, Pinot Grigio and Sauvignon Blanc, while the rest is made up of red wines, such as Pinot Nero, Lagrein, Merlot, and Cabernet. The best of the Lagrein, Merlot and Cabernet grapes are vinified and bottled under the RAUT brand, a registered trademark.

Our modern packaging company cultivates 750 ha of arable land and has circa 500 members. The amount of apples we process every year totals an average of 4,800 wagons of eating apples. The strengths of our company lie in the sunny apple orchards which are located in the southern South Tyrol, the cultivation in accordance with the AGRIOS and GLOBALGAP guidelines, the availability of fresh fruit the whole year long as well as every kind of package and an immediate delivery.

The soil is the origin. The maintenance of his natural fertility and vitality is a duty. The production of wines - as natural as possible - is the goal. - Patrick Uccelli

In our family-run tenuta we work according to the guidelines of Bioland and Demeter. The bio-dynamic principles, the farm animals and beneficial insects accompany us through the seasons.

The Franz Haas Wineryhas endeavoured to show the wines it produces always in the best light. It was established in 1880 and has been handed down through the generations up to now to a Franz Haas. Around 55 vine-planted hectares are worked, subdivided among owners, renters and assignees.Franz Haas has always been recognised as a great enthusiast and cultivator of themost difficult vine, one that is the most sensitive and repays the greatest: the Pinot Nero. Not withstanding all the attention, the brainpower, the work, the product isn’t always at the same level as its origins, so the selection oft he Pinot Noir, called „Schweizer“, isn’t always put on the market.

Be enchanted from the subtle perfume and the exellent taste of our distillates!

The pleasure of tasting the distillate should wake up memories from a warm summer evening under the fruit tree, from a walk through the wineyards or from gandmothers kitchen, where the jam gets boiled. With great passion, love and ambition we make sure that this experience comes true.

The hilly countryside of Mazzon is, without doubt, the best terrain for Blauburgunder in the whole of the southern Tirol. An island of vines 300 to 450 meters above the left banks of the river Etsch it is protected from above by the crest of the 'Königswiese' mountain which provides shade over the whole area long after the sun has risen. Indeed, the microclimate created by the rapid temperature changes between the cool mornings and the long sunny afternoons and evenings is ideal for the vines.

Our wines are: Pinot Nero Riserva, Lagrein, Gewürztraminer.

"Family-run ’Tschaup‘ farm lies at 450m above sea level in the sunny Unterland area. Lots of fruit and berries thrive here, which then get turned into delicious fruit jams, cordials and sauces. High-quality honey is also produced on the farm. ”Bees play an important role for the natural world and the environment and make excellent-quality honey” stresses Klaus Jageregger, a keen farmer and beekeeper."

Distillation at the highest level
With fruits and grapes from our own vineyards we produce excellent fruit brandies and grappa. We use only fresh, sun-ripe and healthy fruit. Those are the heart and the abundance of aroma of our noble brandies and grappa. Barrique barrels in our naturalstone cellar hold special distillates up to 2 years, thus they get a pleasant mature and finesse! In our sortiment you will find various fruit brandies, berries brandies, grappa and liquors.

The world of grappa, spirits and liqueurs is a long tradition of the distillery Villa Laviosa.

A guided tasting is possible on request, only with advance registration and a minimum of 4 participants. Otherwise you can go shopping in the shop or try a few products.

 

 

The Weissenhof in Vilpian is an old farm that has been growing apples for over 700 years. The production of apple juice began in 1984, rather by chance for family needs. First the neighbors were also interested, then various bars and hotels in the area. Today the naturally turbid apple juice is sold beyond the country's borders. The range has been expanded to include various apple-fruit juices, vinegar and the apple-mulled mix, popular in winter. The production facilities were refined and adapted to the times. Only hand-picked apples are used for the apple juice, no windfalls. The juice is gently pasteurized, not filtered and is free from additives.

It is the love for nature and everything beautiful it brings along, that have turned us into what we are today: a small family-run business producing a great variety of products according to strict organic and environmental friendly criteria. Herbs, vegetables and flowers used for the production as well as the realization of our herbal teas, herb mixes and herb salts have been carefully cultivated according to ancient farm traditions. About 1 hectare ground has been destined to the cultivation of different types of fruit which will afterwards be manually processed and turned into excellent juices, syrups, jams, mustards and dry fruit.

Direct selling: each Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday from 4 pm to 6 pm or by arrangement. Each Tuesday (from Easter to All saints) you can also find us at the farmer’s market.
