Our Pinot wines embody the Alpine-Mediterranean character of the Renon.
The sun-kissed, breezy mountain slopes and mineral-rich terrain of our vineyard in Soprabolzano on the Renon are ideally suited to Pinot grapes. Fruity and powerful, fresh and elegant: with their distinctive character and multi-faceted, mineral nuances, our wines never fail to impress.
Our wines are available for purchase in the Spornberg winery farm store and in select specialist stores.
Spicy
Full-bodied
Pinot Noir (known as Blauburgunder in German) originates from the French wine-growing region of Burgundy and has been cultivated in South Tyrol for over 100 years. This high-maintenance varietal requires a finely-tuned interaction between soil, climate and care. The optimal south-facing location of our mountain vineyards and the mineral-rich, sandy, loamy terrain give our Pinot Noir its decisive character: a spicy, fruity bouquet and full-bodied elegance with refreshing notes of blackberries, cherries and forest fruit, reminiscent of a dry forest floor.

Mineral
Pinot Blanc (known as Weissburgunder in German) is one of the foremost white wine varietals in South Tyrol. The mineral-rich, loamy terrain gives our full-bodied Pinot Blanc a soft acidity and fruity notes of apple, pear, quince and vanilla. This straw-yellow white wine is an impressive blend of elegant finesse, pleasing fullness and a fresh, fruity character.
