Nals Margreid

One of the oldest cooperative wineries in the Altro Adige, where viticulture has been rooted for millennia, taking into account that it is the northernmost wine region in Italy. Founded in 1932, it carries on this wine culture and tradition, respecting tradition, but with a vision aimed at the future. The cooperatives of Alto Adige are famous for their high quality production, unlike other Italian regions, and Nals Margreid is no exception. The vineyards extend from Nalls, between Bolzano and Merano, the northernmost point of our vineyards, up to Margreid, in the southern part of the plain: this is the origin of the name of the winery. Clearly, notable varieties of terroirs and vines are represented, both native and international. The 138 winegrowers grow high-quality grapes on approximately 160 hectares of vineyards. With a high level of environmental awareness, the members of the cooperative, for whom quality is fundamental, ensure that the vines grow in a healthy and natural way, producing those wonderful grapes from which exceptional wines are made every year. With group work, together, tradition is not only respected, but also cultivated, lived and continuously developed. The winery building, renovated in 2011, is an expression of the terroir as much as the excellent wines it produces. Very modern structure on one side, but functional for the most careful and demanding production on the other. For example, gravity is used to work the wines, avoiding pressure pumps or machines that could compromise the integrity of the wine. Nals Margreid produces approximately one million bottles every year, for a total of 32 labels characterized by precision, elegance and quality, as demonstrated by the numerous recognitions and prizes awarded by the main international and Italian sector magazines.
