IGT Mitterberg

Gloria Dei

The white wine Gloria Dei is a cuvée of Pinot Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling. These 3 grape varieties have been cultivated in South Tyrol for more than 100 years. In suitable locations they produce particularly fruity, slightly aromatic white wines, which develop a particularly characteristic mineral note after a few years of ripening. The grapes for this cuvée come from the Rosarium vineyard in Marling. Here we have medium-heavy, slightly sandy moraine soils, which warm up quickly in spring.

Eichenstein Vineyard

Cellar

The family of Josef Waldner, owner of the winery, have been making wine for 350 years. The origin of winemaking at the Eichenstein has its roots in Marling, where the dedicated wine lover created his first white wine cuvée “Gloria Dei” in 2005. In 2006, he followed on with his “Baccara” Marlot and Cabernet Franc red wine cuvéè, assisted and advised by renowned enologist Hartmann Donà. In 2007 Josef Waldner further realised his vision when he established the Eichenstein vineyard on the Freiberg, from 550-600 m, above Meran. In 2014, the crowning jewel of the vineyard was built: The wine cellar, a vinarium and a guest chalet. And in 2018, the most recent porphyry plot was established at 500 m above sea level.
