About Girlan
Based in the south Tyrol region of Italy, you could be forgiven for thinking you were in Austrian territory when visiting Girlan. High up in these isolated mountains, the region has forged its own unique identity, quite distinct from the rest of Italy.
Girlan is a wine co-operative, with over 200 winegrower members. They one of the region’s finest ‘grower collectives’ producing exemplary Alto Adige wines.
They have long encouraged their growers to focus on those varieties that best suit their soils, aspects and altitudes and have long been the benchmark for single0vineyard, and single varietal wines in the region.
Since cellarmaster Gehard Kofler arrived in 2006, Girlan has truly established themselves as one of the leading producers in the region.

From the Importer
The 448 Rosso is drawn from grapes grown (unsurprisingly) at around 448 metres above sea level in the Alto Adige. It's crafted from a blend of two indigenous Südtirol varieties--Lagrein and Schiava--along with Pinot Nero, for which the terroirs of Alto Adige have proven their aptitude. The Lagrein comes from the deep, sandy soils of the Bassa Atesina (a warmer terroir ideal for ripening Lagrein). The Pinot Nero and Schiava grapes are grown on the hillside vineyards of Cornaiano, in sunny, well-aired vineyards. Fermentation is in tank and old barrels before the wines complete their maturation in concrete vats.
