Locally referred to as Kellerei Kurtatsch, this is a small co-operative producer located in the village of Kurtatsch, also known in Italian as Cortaccia in bilingual Alto Adige. The village is located high on a sunny plateau overlooking the Adige valley. This is a place of extraordinary beauty, surrounded by orchards, vineyards, and forests, with splendid views of the Dolomite mountains. The cypress trees which are found throughout the area adorn the labels of the Kellerei Kurtatsch wines. Their wide range is produced from grape varieties typical to the region, grown in fertile soils and benefitting from a superb microclimate of 2,000 hours of sunshine per year alternating with cool nights.
