    Winemaker Notes

    The work horse of the region in terms of planted acres, this varietal likens itself to Gamay (Beaujolais), or Dolcetto. Thin skinned in nature, this grape offers a transparent ruby color in the glass and pushes forward fresh red fruit in the glass. Spice and light tannins.

    Castelfeder  Winery Image
    The Castelfeder Winery was founded in 1970 by A. Giovanett, who had attended the renowned wine school in San Michele all'Adige and at the founding already had extensive experience as a vintner. The small private winery originally lay in the center of Neumarkt in the south of South Tyrol and processed mainly red grapes of the Lagrein, Pinot Noir and Schiava varieties.

    In 1989 the founder's son, Günther Giovanett (born in 1958), took over the management of the winery and at the same time, the winery was transferred to the small village of Kurtinig in the very south of South Tyrol. Today the Castelfeder Winery is located in the middle of South Tyrol’s southernmost vineyards, where mostly white varieties such as Pinot Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon and Gewürztraminer are grown. The administrative office however is still located in the historical center of Neumarkt. The purchase of new vineyards and close collaboration with the contracted winegrowers offer Günther Giovanett new possibilities of producing great wines through careful selection of the best production areas and well-aimed cultivation of choice varietals; a job he performs with enthusiasm.

    This enthusiasm begins in the vineyard with the planting of the vines, advising and working with the winegrowers and continues through the harvest and gentle pressing of the grapes in the cellar up to the vinification of the wines and finally to their marketing. The result of this difficult but rewarding job is wine to be proud of.

    Creating transparent, cranberry colored reds, perfumed with a hint of mint or pepper, the Schiava grape makes its home in the Alto Adige region of NE Italy. The German speakers here call it Vernatsch and it goes by the name of Trollinger in the German region of Württemberg. Schiava enjoys great popularity in Switzerland, Austria and southern Germany. Somm Secret—Schiava’s bright raspberry and pomegranate qualities make it a perfectly delightful summer red! Serve it slightly chilled.
