Rooted in 500 Years of History
Traditional cultivation and respect for nature and terroir
The A. von Elzenbaum Estate Winery in Termeno
was
mentioned in a document for the first time in 1530, and its wines
officially won their first awards in 1886. So it is not surprising,
then, that as a result of this, there is still a focus on tradition, on
typical cultivation, and respect for nature, in view of their history
that dates back nearly 500 years.
A tradition of that length
could represent a burden to many, but for winegrower Josef von
Elzenbaum, it is more of an obligation. He safeguards it in a tried and
true, long-established manner, but at the same time he keeps his eyes
open for new, innovative, interesting, and promising paths and
techniques.
In spite of that, or maybe specifically because of
that, the wines of the A. von Elzenbaum Estate Winery are rooted in
their terroir. “For me, it first and foremost has to do with preserving
the character of my wines that is typical of the location and carefully coordinating the selection of the variety to the location,”
the winegrower says. Elevation, soil composition, microclimate: all of
that has to be involved in the evaluation of a location in order to
find the optimal grapevine.
This care with the matching has led
over the years to a broad palette of wines which the A. von Elzenbaum
Estate Winery has in its product line: Lagrein and Cabernet, Pinot Noir
and Lago di Caldaro superiore, Gewürztraminer, Chardonnay, and Red
Muscat. But it doesn’t matter which wine you sample: you will taste
Termeno, you will taste A. von Elzenbaum.
