Feldmarschall Müller-Thurgau Alto Adige DOC
This beautifully crafted wine is made from 100% Müller-Thurgau. The vineyards sit on the high plateau of
Fennberg, protected from the northerly winds and ripened in a unique microclimate. At an elevation of
3,300 feet above sea level, these are among the highest Müller-Thurgau vineyards in Europe. The wine is
named after Franz Philipp Freiherr von Fenner zu Fennberg, founder of the Austrian Kaiserjäger (soldiers
of the Austrian emperor), who once used this picturesque Hofstatt as a summer residence.
Gewürztraminer Alto Adige DOC
This most ancient grape of the region is treated to some careful vinification that preserves its true varietal
character. Grown on hillsides surrounding the villages of Entiklar and Kurtatsch, not far from the winery
itself, the Gewürztraminer is allowed to get perfectly ripe. Vinified in a combination of stainless steel tanks
and cement vats, the wine is matured on the fine lees for extra depth of character. The stainless steel
preserves freshness while the cement allows the wine to breathe naturally. The final blend is a classic
example of this variety.
Turmhof Sauvignon Alto Adige DOC
This handcrafted Sauvignon Blanc comes from two separate areas—at different altitudes and with different
soils—each making their own contribution to the final wine. The chalky, glacial soils in Kurtatsch provide
structure and minerality while the sandy, loam soils of Völser Aicha allow for development of the classic
floral and herbal qualities. A portion (30%) of the wine is matured in large oak casks on the fine lees for
six months to add complexity, while a multi vessel approach (steel, wood, and cement) to aging adds
roundness and balance.
Linticlarus Lagrein Riserva Alto Adige DOC
The Linticlarus Selection line includes the premium wines of the Tiefenbrunner Estate Winery, which are
produced only in exceptional vintages. The name “Linticlarus” is taken from the name of the former Roman
fortress “castrum linticlar” in Entiklar. The goal of this selection is to combine the highest potential of both
the vineyard and the vintner’s art to produce inimitable, world-class wines.
