A South Tyrolean winery
steeped in history
For generations
Coming from one of the oldest winemaking families in South Tyrol fills us with pride but at the same time makes us feel obliged to continue writing history. We take this task on board with a sense of responsibility, energy and entrepreneurial spirit.
600 years of wine
From livestock farming and fruit and wine growing to solely wine growing and holiday apartments – the 600-year history of our ancestral farm with its many twists and turns still has many exciting anecdotes to tell today.
By conviction
Today Florian and Judith continue the family legacy with passion and drive, welcoming holidaymakers as well as wine and culture enthusiasts to their historic winery. In addition to their love for winemaking, they have also fulfilled their dream of opening their historic winery to the public offering guided tours and tastings, cultural events in the wood-panelled “Herrenstube”, courtyard and cellar as well as their new exclusive holiday apartments, which promise a unique winery holiday where you can enjoy both city flair and idyllic countryside surroundings.
A Wine Estate with Centuries of Heritage
The origins of our wine estate reach deep into the Middle Ages, with documented records tracing back to the year 1363. Over generations, the estate has been carefully preserved and cultivated, reflecting the enduring winegrowing tradition of Bolzano-Gries. Today, Schmid Oberrautner stands as a family-run winery rooted in history and defined by continuity, craftsmanship, and a profound connection to its terroir.
A detailed historical overview can be found in the Schmid Oberrautner Erbhof Wikipedia article, complemented by archival sources from the family records, the estate chronicle, and the library of Muri-Gries Abbey.
