The Kellerei Meran invites you to an exclusive wine tasting at the house of culture Thalguter in Algund on October 18th from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM. An experienced sommelier from the "Kellerei Meran" will present the finest wines and guide you through the tasting. The Kellerei Meran is deeply rooted in our region. Tradition, landscape, and viticulture have always been closely intertwined in the Merano area. The foundation of the "Kellerei Meran" was laid back in 1901 by a few dedicated vintners. Today, following the merger of the "Burggräfler Kellerei" and the "Weinkellerei Meran" in 2010, the cooperative boasts 360 members. In the glass, the origin and provenance of the grapes must be perceptible. The wine should stay true to its "roots" and represent transparency, character, and authenticity. Each bottle thus becomes a special experience. Many of the Algund vintners are members of the "Kellerei Meran" and make a significant contribution to these aromatic wines. If you have admired the beautiful vineyards in Algund, you can now savor them in a fine wine. Come by, raise a toast, and experience the Merano-Algund harmony in wine.
