Südtiroler Weinstraße: 70km Through Alpine Vineyards

The South Tyrolean Wine Road (Südtiroler Weinstraße) runs 70km through Alto Adige, passing castle ruins, mountain panoramas, and dozens of wine villages. It's the scenic thread connecting all the Pinot experiences in this chapter - and reveals why Alto Adige is Italy's most Austrian-feeling wine region.

How to Complete

3 steps curated by Wine Memories

From Nalles to Salorno - the complete wine road.

Drive from Nalles (north) to Salorno (south) or vice versa. The 70km route passes through all major wine villages. Stop at viewpoints to photograph Dolomite backdrops behind vineyards.

🍷 Log Memory
Several wineries occupy medieval castles along the route.

Find a castle-based winery (Castel Sallegg, Castel Ringberg, etc.). The medieval architecture combined with modern winemaking creates experiences you won't find elsewhere. Many have stunning terraces overlooking vineyards.

🍷 Log Memory
This region speaks both languages - labels reflect dual identity.

Notice the bilingual signs (German/Italian). Wine labels may say Blauburgunder (German) or Pinot Nero (Italian). The dual identity reflects the region's Austrian history before 1919.
