The Alto Adige region of Italy is located in the far north, nestled in the Alps on the border between Austria and Switzerland. Alto Adige is unique in its climate and benefits from the best of both worlds—with refreshing brisk Alpine air cooling the vines from the warm Mediterranean sun. The indigenous red grape Schiava grows alongside local white grape Kerner. International grapes also thrive here, with Pinot Nero, Pinot Blanc, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc all finding distinctive expressions that are among the best in all of Italy. With vineyard elevations ranging from 650 to 3,300 feet, Alto Adige wine growers have learned how to live in harmony with nature. Sustainability has always been important: thinking and acting with long-term conservation of the land in mind. The wines of the Alto Adige region showcase the elegant side of wine making. Whites are marked by a mineral character and are perfect with a wide array of dishes from hard cheeses to seafood. The reds are delicate and perfumed, ranging from light and nimble to robust and perfect for rich stews or grilled meats. Explore all this diverse region has to offer with this selection of our favorite producers and wines.
