The Strasserhof sells its white wines in six countries
The grapevines that are tended at the Strasserhof Estate Winery in Varna
are up to 45 years old. From the grapes of these vines, Hannes Baumgartner, winegrower at the Strasserhof and, at the same time, president of the Independent Winegrowers association, makes youthful-fresh wines. White wines, of course, since we are in the Valle Isarco after all.
The
strictly white assortment of the Strasserhof Estate Winery is a
thankfully broad one. It ranges from Müller Thurgau and Grüner Veltliner
to Sylvaner, Riesling, and Gewürztraminer all the way to Zweigelt. And
of course includes Kerner, upon which Baumgartner has placed particular
focus. “Our characteristic Valle Isarco wines can without a doubt be
described with three attributes: a strong mineral quality, great
juiciness, and pleasant, youthful freshness,” Baumgartner says.
Since
2003, he has been producing wine at the Strasserhof, an operation whose
history in any case dates back much further. “The farmhouse was already
built in the eleventh century,” the winegrower explains. Today, the
estate winery encompasses five hectares of vineyards that are
distributed over sunny locations with a southwestern exposure at
elevations from 650 to 700 meters. “The lightly sandy gravel soils
contribute to the elegant, fruity freshness of our wines,” says
Baumgartner with conviction.
Thus around 45,000 bottles of white wine
are produced each year, for which the chairman of the Independent
Winegrowers in Alto Adige has developed a broad market. So today, wines
from the Strasserhof are drunk not only in Italy, Austria, and Germany, but also in the Netherlands, Japan, and the USA.
