Acquired and managed by the Kerschbaumer family since 1940, the Kofererhof estate has existed in southern Tyrol, a region that is as Austrian in spirit as it is Italian, for over 850 years. In 1995, the winery started to bottle its own wines after having sold its fruit to local wineries for years. Kofererhof's tiny 5 hectares of vines are located at the base of the Dolomite mountains between 700 and 800 metres above sea level. At this high altitude, the variation in temperatures from day to night is ideal, and the carefully tended, high-density vineyards yield intensely fragrant, concentrated and well-balanced wines. All grapes are harvested by hand, and attention to detail is paramount in this limited production winery. The quality of these wines raises the bar for all whites from Alto-Adige. Pale greenish-yellow in color, this wine has a fresh, fruity nose. On the palate it is dry and harmonious showing a full body and surprising persistence on the palate. (6 x 75 cl)

Bottled in June following the harvest, the Riesling is vinified entirely in stainless steel. With a greenish-golden yellow hue, it is fruity on the nose, with notes of peach and tropical fruit. Elegant, aromatic, and fresh on the palate, there is a wonderful sapidity to this wine, as well as an excellent structure and strong finish. (6 x 75 cl)

The Kerner smells of tangerine and lychee and tastes of peach, apricots and honey with plenty of complex nuances, has a medium to full-bodied texture and refreshing acidity in the finish. It's a rare white wine that manages to achieve plenty of flavour, good texture and complexity without the aid of oak. (6 x 75 cl)
The Lagrein is what Ramoser is renowned for. A dense ruby red leads into a nose of coffee, pencil box and berry-skin fruit. The big rich palate offers big sweet tannins and charming mineral touches. (6 x 75 cl)
