Kettmeir

Falstaff Wine Guide Italy 2026

Kettmeir, a historic South Tyrolean winery founded in 1919, has made a name for itself with its fragrant, elegant wines typical of the region. Above all, however, it was a pioneer in the revitalisation of the old South Tyrolean sparkling wine tradition and today produces high-quality sparkling wines according to the Metodo Classico, the bottle fermentation method. The flagship of this branch of production is the iconic "Athesis" Brut Alto Adige DOC. There is also "Athesis" Brut Rosé Alto Adige DOC, the unbottled Pas Dosé Alto Adige DOC and "1919" Riserva Extra Brut Alto Adige DOC.

Falstaff Wineguide Austria/South Tyrol 2021/22

Kettmeir is a historic South Tyrolean winery founded in 1919 and located in the middle of the vineyards of Kaltern. It has always borne witness to the wine-growing culture anchored in South Tyrol and the favourable climatic conditions of this region. At the same time, Kettmeir is a modern winery that knows how to enhance the indigenous grape varieties both in the valley and at altitude and to produce fragrant, elegant wines that are typical of the region. The main focus of Kettmeir's production is on fine sparkling wines. The high altitudes - a generous gift of the South Tyrolean region - the cold northern winds and the warm currents from the Mediterranean and the significant temperature fluctuations create the ideal environment for Kettmeir's South Tyrolean flint wines. With natural elegance and finesse, these traditionally bottle-fermented sparkling wines convey an intense aromatic richness and delicious freshness from the very first sip.
