Winery St. Quirinus

Perched on a hillside above Lake Kaltern, this biodynamic winery offers a stay rooted in history, nature, and contemporary design. Once tended by monks of the Bavarian Tegernsee Monastery, the estate continues a centuries-old winemaking legacy while embracing sustainability. The gravity-flow cellar minimizes energy use, and organic, biodynamic practices allow each grape to express the terroir’s natural character. The property features minimalist holiday apartments designed for space, calm, and connection to the landscape. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame vineyard and mountain views, while balconies and terraces invite long, quiet hours outdoors. Interiors are clean and timeless, inspired by natural tones from the estate’s gardens. Each apartment includes a private wine cabinet, and every unit has its own distinct style. Start the day with a farmhouse breakfast featuring homemade bread, jams, organic honey, seasonal compotes, fresh eggs from the farm, local cheeses, and traditional South Tyrolean products—served in the breakfast lounge or delivered to your door with fresh bread upon request. Nature is the true wellness center here, with hiking trails, forest paths, and Lake Kaltern just moments away. Guests can also unwind in the wine-barrel sauna, an intimate wood-fired retreat with vineyard views—an atmospheric way to end a day in South Tyrol’s wine country.
