Griesserhof
In the heart of the Val d’Isarco, among the northernmost vineyards of South Tyrol, lies the estate Griesserhof, passionately and visionarily led by Paul Huber. Here, amid breathtaking landscapes and a unique microclimate, a winemaking production dedicated to excellence is born, where the declared goal is one: to create wines of character, authentic and territorial.
The origins of this extraordinary agricultural company date back… to the Ice Age. It was indeed the slow retreat of glaciers that left behind fertile morainic soils rich in minerals, on which today grow white varieties with an intense aromatic profile and vibrant freshness. Alongside them, expressions of Zweigelt and Pinot Noir also find space, capable of surprising with elegance and typicity.
The estate includes three main vineyards: Gols, Gall, and Rigger. The Gols vineyard, located in the valley floor and embraced by the historic farm, is a witness to a centuries-old tradition: the first evidence of cultivation dates back to the 14th century, as documented by the records of the Novacella Abbey. On these sandy and loamy soils, Huber proudly cultivates his best Sylvaner, a grape variety that here expresses minerality and precision in a unique way.
At an altitude of 800 meters is the Gall vineyard, home to Kerner, which benefits from cool temperature fluctuations and intense brightness. In the warm Val Riga, on the other hand, it is the Veltliner that dominates: a wine of great expressiveness, rich, aromatic, and full of energy.
Vino45 is proud to include the estate Griesserhof in its selection, an emblem of authentic and respectful alpine viticulture, capable of finely narrating the most elegant face of South Tyrol. Every bottle signed by Paul Huber is an invitation to discover wines that arise from the land and speak with the voice of the mountains.
