Ignaz Niedrist

Alpine Südtirol wines: Sauvignon Blanc, Schiava, and Blauburgunder from the mountains.

Ignaz Niedrist produces wines from Südtirol in the Alpine foothills of northern Italy, where cool nights and mineral-rich soils shape distinctive expressions of classic varieties. The winery's Südtiroler Sauvignon Limes demonstrates the region's capacity for aromatic white wines of precision and structure. Its Südtirol Kalterersee Auslese Classico, made from Schiava, reflects the local tradition of elegant, lighter reds suited to the mountain climate. The Südtiroler Blauburgunder Riserva—a Pinot Noir-based wine—shows the potential for age-worthy depth in this terroir. Wines from the estate have been assessed by Wine Advocate, Decanter, Wine Enthusiast, and Wine Spectator.
