New Paths that are Actuality Old
One of the largest estate wineries in Alto Adige is run strictly biodynamically
With 50 hectares of grape growing areas, the Manincor Estate Winery in Caldarois one of the largest in all of Alto Adige. And also one with some of
the richest traditions: grapes have been grown here for more than four
hundred years, a tradition which Count Michael Goëss-Enzenberg continues – along new paths that are actuality old.
Count Goëss-Enzenberg, who is himself a trained oenologist, has focused on biodynamic cultivationin his estate winery since 2005, and that means: the revitalization of
the soil with compost, special sowing of greenery, allowing chickens,
sheep, and bees in the vineyard, and last but not least creating herbal
teas with which the grapevines are treated. Chamomile helps the plants
to overcome situations of stress, stinging nettle tea gives them energy,
and horsetail herb supports the healing of injuries.
But as
old as the knowledge about cultivation is at the Manincor Estate Winery
in Kaltern, that’s how modern the winery is, which was built underground
three stories below the vineyards. In the end, the grapes from a half
million vines are brought together here, and a total of fifteen different grape varietiesare made into wine here. But in spite of the size, the work in the
winery is still always work by hand – with a particular attention to
small scale: “Also trying and doing our best possible work even down to
the smallest detail is our path to the highest natural quality,” says
Count Goëss-Enzenberg. Because, “For me, wine is the greatest sensory
expression of agricultural culture.”
And at the Manincor Estate Winery in Caldaro, they know their way around with focus on the senses, with passion, with authenticity, and with heart. For more than four hundred years. After all, a free translation of Manincor is “hand on heart. ”
