High up in the Sausal, surrounded by the steepest vineyards, is the traditional winery Gerngross. The altitude of 600 metres above sea level, barren slate soils and a unique microclimate characterise this wonderful stretch of land. For generations, the Gerngross family has known how to use the unique characteristics of this region to produce quality wines typical of its origins. The minerality is in the foreground of their wines. The vineyards, characterised by red and blue slate, are the basis of a taut and salty-mineral typicity.
A respectful approach to nature has always been emblematic of the winemaker's craft. In order to preserve the originality of the soils the Gerngross family has decided to cultivate the vineyards organically. The main purpose of this is to preserve the fertility and biodiversity. The vines thank for the careful handling with a special complexity and originality of the wines.
