COR RÖMIGBERG CABERNET SAUVIGNON
RÖMIGBERG SCHIAVA
The spectacular steep slope of the Römigberg vineyard on Lake Caldaro comes very close to our ideal of a closed farm organism, in which the coexistence of humans, animals and plants plays an important role. Cows and oxen graze among the vines and olive trees. In 1986, this area, aptly named “Cor” (Latin for “heart”), was planted with Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot.

The Römigberg vineyard is located on a spectacular steep slope on Lake Caldaro. The location is characterised by a diverse blend of soil types and varying climatic conditions. The vineyards, which face south-southeast, receive intense sunshine and are influenced by a warm, Mediterranean climate. The subsoil is a mix of dolomite limestone and remnants of ancient glacial deposits. The Römigberg thus offers a unique climatic and geological playground.
