The wine villages of Kurtatsch, Margreid and
Kurtinig on the Wine Road are famous for their sun and wine. Softly, they
fit into the landscape. Characteristic style elements and enchanting details
represent the southern influence: the archways and double arch windows, the
loggias and oriels, as well as the crafty wrought-iron window grills and pub
signs. The vineyards are touched by the warm light and atmosphere created by
the cypress trees, the blooming oleander, fig and olive trees.
In the wine village of Kurtatsch a large amount of
manor-like estates speak of wealth of the former aristocratic wine-growing
generations. The highest vineyard in South Tyrol (1.050 metres) is part of
the castle’s wine cellar Turmhof in Entiklar.
The Grafengasse in Margreid is home to the oldest
dated grapevine in South Tyrol. It was planted in 1601 and today still
produces about 80 kg of grapes.
Kurtinig on the Wine Road is the smallest village in
the South Tyrolean Lowlands and invites at many comfortable walking and
bicycle tours.
