Wine-growing countries and regions

Here you will find an overview of all the countries that make up our product range. This is accompanied by some basic information. If you would like to know a little more, you will also find brief information and the wines from the regions in which they were produced on the next level.

Germany

The climatic characteristics that influence wine growing in Germany include the temperate climate with cooler temperatures, sufficient rainfall and fewer hours of sunshine compared to warmer wine growing regions.

France

The country is known for its many different wine regions, from Bordeaux and Burgundy to Champagne and the Loire. The particular climatic conditions vary depending on the region: from maritime-influenced areas such as Bordeaux and the Loire to continental-influenced regions such as Burgundy and the Rhône Valley.

Italy

Italy has a long winemaking tradition and a wide variety of grape varieties, including Sangiovese, Montepulciano, Trebbiano Toscano, Glera and Barbera. The diversity and quality of Italian wines results from different climates, soils and cultivation methods. The history of viticulture dates back to the Etruscans and Romans.

Austria

Winegrowing in Austria has a long history dating back to the time of the Celts and Romans. Over the centuries, the Austrian winegrowing landscape has constantly evolved, with an increased focus on quality, terroir and regional specialities in recent decades.

Spain

The country has different climate zones, from maritime and cool in the north to continental and hot in the south. The different regions thus offer different conditions for growing grape varieties, which contributes to the great diversity of Spanish wines.

Australia

The ancient continent where you can also find ancient vines. Australia is one of those countries, indeed continents, that we like to call the "New World", even though nothing could be more wrong. When James Cook took possession of the east coast of the continent for the United Kingdom in 1770, there had long been many peoples there, but that was of little interest to the Europeans.

South Africa

Trying to summarise the country at the Cape of Good Hope on one page would be like trying to square the circle. This also applies to viticulture. South Africa can now be described as one of the most dynamic wine-growing countries in the world. Many well-trained winegrowers have given viticulture an enormous boost in the last 15 years.

Tua Rita

When Virgilio Bisti and Rita Tua bought the farm and land near Suvereto in Tuscany's Maremma in 1984, it was actually to realise their dream of a life close to nature. The original 2 hectares of vineyards served as a hobby. Then came the passion. And then everything changed.
