More questions
The Riesling Alto Adige DOC from Schloss Englar elegantly represents the most authentic expression of one of the quintessential aromatic grape varieties, cultivated on the sunny hills of Alto Adige. This region, characterized by an alpine climate moderated by wide temperature variations, imparts the grapes with a vibrant freshness and refined minerality, distinctive traits of this Riesling.
The vinification, carefully managed by the Schloss Englar winery, favors controlled temperature fermentation to preserve the intense varietal aromas, reminiscent of delicate floral notes of wisteria and white-fleshed fruits, enriched with a citrus touch and a slight mineral scent that adds complexity. The aging, generally carried out in stainless steel, maintains the saltiness and taste balance, strongly supported by a vibrant acidity that gives the wine great longevity and freshness on the palate.
Ideal to accompany delicate dishes made with fish, shellfish, or white meats, this Riesling offers itself as a refined companion for moments of conviviality, thanks to its versatility and its controlled yet richly nuanced character.

The story
The Castel/Schloss Englar complex is a medieval settlement first mentioned in documents from 1256; the present late‑Gothic building developed from the 15th century and the property has been linked for centuries to the Counts Khuen‑Belasi. In recent decades the manor has been restored and also converted for hospitality use; wine production was revived and, since 2014, winemaking has again been carried out and bottled on site.
Production philosophy
The winery focuses on estate-grown grapes, organic vineyard management and the preservation of biodiversity. In the cellar, careful winemaking practices are preferred to produce clean wines characteristic of the area, with extended aging in wood and respect for maturation on the lees when necessary.
Terroir and vineyards
Located in San Michele di Appiano, the estate stands on a south-facing terraced hill with an almost Mediterranean influence. The area benefits from ample sunshine and soils well suited to alpine and international varieties.
Awards and recognition
Wine ratings reported by specialist magazines, with scores for various reserve wines reaching up to around 93/100 for labels such as Pinot Blanc and Pinot Noir Reserve; numerous labels reviewed with scores in the 91–93/100 range.
