A SHORT STORY OF, LOACKER WEINGUT
It all started on a small hill above Bolzano in the heart of South Tyrol. In 1979, Rainer was bold enough to grow the first organic vineyard in the LOACKER wine estate – and was immediately labelled as out of his mind. This made him even more bullish and gave his creative mind power to fly even higher. Fast forward 40 plus years, the LOACKER Wine Estate is still a pioneer or, as they like to say, ‘no stranger to organic and bio-dynamic wine’. Today, all three sons, Hayo, Franz Josef and Hannes manage the wine estate in Bolzano with their father’s same rebel heart and commitment.
Loacker estate runs over, 3 wineries, 7 hectare and produces 60,000 bottles per year with glass or natural corks and print labels on FSC paper whilst using all resources sparingly. These bottles are split between Gewürztraminer, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Vernatsch, Lagrein, Merlot and Cabernet
