Vinification
The Perlhof vineyard is situated north of Bozen, in the heart of the St. Magdalener region, at 450 metres above sea level. The Vernatsch and Lagrein vines are over 40 years old and are cultivated using the traditional pergola method. The heat-retaining, steep, barren and rocky porphyry soils provide the perfect growing conditions for the grapes used in this special wine. After the traditional maceration process at a controlled temperature of 25°C, the wine is aged in large wooden barrels. Harvesting begins in mid October, when the Vernatsch and Lagrein grapes have reached full maturity. From these handpicked grapes, 70 hectolitres of wine is produced per hectare.

About Weingut Ritterhof
Enclosed in the middle of mountains and vineyards along the South Tyrolean wine route lies the wine village of Kaltern, and it is exactly here, on the wine route No. 1, that the Ritterhof winery is located. The small winery is managed with dedication by the Roner family from Tramin. Traditions have been passed on from generation to generation, combined with harmony with nature and the latest technology. These elements form the basis for the production of fruity white and full-bodied red wines.
