Messnerhof Winery

Messnerhof Winery is a family-run boutique estate where three generations work side by side, carrying forward a winemaking tradition rooted in craftsmanship and responsibility. All wines are made exclusively from grapes grown on the family’s own vineyards in St. Peter near Bolzano, where planting, harvesting, vinification, bottling, and labeling are handled directly on the estate. This hands-on approach reflects their philosophy: when the wine excels, it is their achievement; when something falls short, they answer for it. The result is authentic artisan winemaking guided by passion rather than mass production. For visitors seeking a stay immersed in vineyard life, Messnerhof offers a contemporary holiday apartment on the outskirts of Bolzano, surrounded by rows of vines and views of the surrounding hills. The 60m² accommodation is designed for comfort and relaxation, featuring two separate bedrooms, modern ventilation, natural materials, and solid wood flooring that creates a warm and organic atmosphere. Large windows frame sweeping vineyard landscapes, making the apartment an ideal retreat for travelers who want proximity to nature while being moments from the city. Guests are invited to explore the estate through guided vineyard walks and tastings that introduce sustainable cultivation techniques and the family’s approach to organic winemaking. Private tasting sessions can also be arranged with the cellar master for a deeper look into the craft. Alongside wine, the estate produces a range of small-batch farm goods such as fruit spreads, apple juice, fresh seasonal produce, and other artisanal products available for purchase in the tasting room. The winery offers a pick-up service from Bolzano’s train or bus station upon request, making arrival seamless for travelers without a car. Whether visiting to taste wine, learn about viticulture, or simply enjoy a quiet vineyard escape, Messnerhof provides a genuine and welcoming experience in South Tyrol’s wine country.
