10 facts about Tenuta Hofstätter

1. Tradition - Josef HofstätterHe founded the company in 1907. Today, this company rich in tradition is led in the fourth generation by his great-great-grandson Martin Foradori Hofstätter.

2. Vineyards - With its approximately 50 hectares of vineyards in ownership, the Josef Hofstätter estate is among the largest wineries in South Tyrol.

3. Altitudes - The vineyards are located at altitudes between 250 and 800 meters above sea level, and it is precisely thanks to this characteristic that the cultivation of different varieties is possible.

4. Cardinal points - The Hofstätter estate is the only family-run business in South Tyrol that owns vineyards to the east and west of the Lower Adige and thus has exposures in different microclimatic areas.

5. Varieties – white and red - Thanks to the variety of exposures, both white grape varieties and red grape varieties find excellent growing conditions. The focus is on the traditional varieties for the area: Gewürztraminer, Pinot Bianco, Pinot Nero, Lagrein, and Schiava.

6. Gewürztraminer and Pinot Noir - Hofstätter, with the Kolbenhof and the Vigna del Castello di Rechtenthal in Sella above Tramin (Termeno) and with Barthenau in Mazon, has the largest private area of Gewürztraminer and Pinot Noir in South Tyrol.

7. Wines from single vineyards - Hofstätter wines reveal their origin. They take on the flavor of the exposure where their grapes were grown, the soils, and the microclimate. The Gewürztraminer from Kolbenhof and the Pinot Noir Vigna S. Urbano from Barthenau are among the first wines from South Tyrol to bear the name of their place of origin.

8. "Vigna" - The wines from single vineyards are, without exception, named "Vigna." This distinguishes the wines and refers to the special quality of the single vineyards: it is equivalent to the French "Cru."

9. Viticulture - Delicate and nature-friendly viticulture allows healthy and strong vines to grow. These are long-lived and provide the vintner with good fruits for equally good wines.

There – as the first Italian winemaker – he has acquired vineyards that provide this variety with an exceptional habitat. These vineyards are cultivated by the "VDP" Dr. Fischer - Bocksteinhof estate, which is now run by Martin Foradori Hofstätter along with Johannes Fischer and Nik Weis from the St. Urbans-Hof estate.

Cellar

Who is looking for the Tenuta Hofstätter finds himself, navigating through the maze of alleys in Termeno, in the large square of the town hall, with the bar and the church.

The winery is located in an impressive 16th-century building that was originally built as the imperial-post station and later housed the "Schwarzer Adler" (Black Eagle) inn run by Maria Hofstätter, a great-aunt of Martin Foradori. In the cellar was her husband, Josef, who was producing his first wines. The potential of the estate's vineyards was discovered not long after by his grandson Konrad Oberhofer, who, along with his wife Luise, took over the management of the company in 1942.

For the first time in South Tyrol, he began to keep the grapes from different estates separate, both during the harvest and in the subsequent processing in the winery. In this way, he was able to work separately and in the most appropriate ways with the different grapes, naming the wines after their respective estates. Konrad Oberhofer's daughter, Sieglinde, married Paolo Foradori in 1959, heir to an ancient family in the area that owned excellent vineyards on the eastern slopes of the... Val of Adige.

These estates were cultivated and combined with those surrounding Termeno by the winery in the center of the village, which today bears the name of its then founder, Josef Hofstätter.
