Alois Lageder is working together with wine-growing partners from the Dolomiti area to create fresh and lively wines that reflect their unique origin – the Dolomites. The landscape is at once Alpine and Mediterranean, cool and sunny, composed of impressive mountains and little lakes, rugged rock edges and green hills. Whatever its terrain, this landscape is breathtaking, captivating, and majestic.

Wine growing

Together with our partners we work in a way that responds to nature with great care, curiosity, and respect. Our goal is to encourage these partners to completely convert to organic farming. We aim to be cultivating every Terra Alpina vineyard organically or biodynamically in the next few years.

Cellar

Some of the grapes are vinified directly at the Alois Lageder winery. The rest is vinified on our partners’ sites in close communication with the winery. Regardless of the location all our fruit is handled with great care and as naturally as possible.
