Wine ambassadors in the snow
A culinary experience while skiing in the Dolomites
Skiing in wintertime offers the perfect opportunity to explore Alto Adige’s wine culture. In Alta Badia and Val Gardena ski regions, trained ski instructors double as wine experts, not only teaching you the best ski practices but also giving you advice on the finest local wines. The Ski Wine Ambassadors guide you on the slopes of the Dolomites and to the culinary pleasures of the mountain huts, where they always recommend the perfect wine pairing. As trained ski and wine guides, they will familiarize you with wine culture and tastings, introduce ski enthusiasts to the world of Alto Adige wines and highlight their distinct characteristics. There is no better way to enjoy Alto Adige to the fullest: skiing, culinary pleasures, and fine wines!
Alta Badia and Val Gardena are home to no less than three winners of the Alto Adige Wine Culture Award, offering the best taste, choice of products, and service.
Can’t make it this winter? These mountain huts are also open in summer.

- Ütia Bioch hut in Alta Badia, a mountain hut located at 2,000 meters, is managed by Markus Valentini and features a carefully and passionately curated selection of high-quality wines.
- Another gem awaits on the slopes of Seceda mountain in Val Gardena. At an altitude of 2,240 meters, the Demez family has been running the Daniel Hütte hut since 1971. They are a perfect example of how Alto Adige wines can be an integral part of an authentic experience on an Alto Adige hut.
- At the Jimmi Hut hut located above Gardena Pass, Josef “Jimmi” Schrott and his team offer the finest dining experience with a stunning view. Like all winners of the Alto Adige Wine Culture Award, they are passionate about wine and carefully select the perfect wine pairing.
