South Tyrol 2018

For the third time now we headed to South Tyrol, again to the Haus am Hang and to new wineries, which Mr Morandell had also arranged for us.

Peter Dipoli was visited once more, this time with a vertical tasting of his Iugum – at some point we had to slow him down, otherwise he would probably have opened every vintage lying in his cellar for us.

Afterwards we went into the vineyards, where on a hot day the tasting of the Glacierhof winery took place under Gewürztraminer pergolas shaded with duvet covers. Stefan Vaja served up great wines from magnum bottles, and afterwards the Haus am Hang supplied platters of cold cuts for our physical well-being.

The Lagreins from the Carlotto estate then won us over during our visit to the winery – in no time at all we bought up every magnum bottle of the Lagrein they had in stock!

At Loacker we enjoyed a lovely tasting on a super hot day with a great view from the winery’s pavilion.
