For this reason, we have decided to found an exclusive Wine Club for all our friends, partners and customers. Wine Club-members will be more closely connected with us, get first-hand news and enjoy unique advantages during the year.

News from the vineyard
The 2024 wine year has been a challenging one so far, characterized by a lot of rainfall and moderate temperatures. The weather has demanded a lot of attention and hard work from our winegrowers in the vineyard over the past few months. Recently, we have been all the more pleased with summer temperatures and bright sunshine, which, according to forecasts, is set to continue.
The work in the vineyard is currently very intensive. Excess leaves are removed from the shoots during defoliation to ensure that the grapes get enough sunlight and air. The tops of the vines are pruned. This is also done to allow more light and air circulation into the vineyard. All with the aim of harvesting healthy and ripe grapes in the fall.

you.

Screwcap on CLASSICI-whites and rosé
Starting with vintage
2023, all white and rosé wines of the Classici range will be bottled
exclusively with screwcap. After successfully introducing this type of closure
for three vintages on Pinot Grigio and Pinot Bianco, the other references of
this range will follow, such as 448 slm. Bianco, Chardonnay, Müller Thurgau and
Gewürztraminer as well as 448 slm. Rosé.

Lightweight-glass bottles
Starting with 2024, Cantina Girlan will be greener thanks to a precise
and careful choice that will focus even more on that desire to produce
wines linked to the land while preserving natural resources and the time
dictated by the earth. Starting with the first bottlings of the 2023
vintage, in fact, all of Cantina Girlan's production lines will
gradually begin to use 410 gram bottles, decisively reducing CO2 emissions into the environment.
