Mitterberg

Wine · PGI · 116 municipalities

Established in 1999, the Mitterberg PGI covers the entire province of Bolzano, encompassing 116 municipalities including Aldino and Appiano. Distinct from neighboring alpine designations, Mitterberg explicitly bans traditional quality qualifiers like 'riserva' and 'vendemmia tardiva' on its labels. Instead, the appellation provides its 84 verified producers with immense blending freedom, authorizing about 38 eligible grape varieties. This permits winemakers to pair native Schiava and Lagrein with classic international grapes and innovative, fungus-resistant PIWI varieties such as Solaris and Bronner. Yields are strictly restricted to a maximum of 19.0 t/ha, ensuring a consistent standard across these versatile mountain wines.
