Tenuta Weingut Trogerhof

The Trogerhof estate is right on the top of the S. Maddalena hill at the foot of the Renon/Ritten. While its establishment is uncertain, the farmstead has always been mentioned since S. Maddalena’s characteristic church was built in 1295. One generation after the next oversaw the winegrowing - the feat of heroes, as the steep location makes for challenging conditions. So much so that the harvest must be transported via a cable car built in 1950. This estate is different from the others as it exclusively produces Santa Maddalena. The hill is exposed to the sun on all its sides and boasts a unique view over Bolzano and the Catinaccio massif. The S. Maddalena Classico DOC by Pepi Staffler boasts a ruby-red colour and is a smooth and fruity wine with notes of wild berries, cherries, violets, and almonds. The pergolas face the south and enjoy a warm breeze on the hill at 250 - 350 m above sea level.
