Loacker Wine Estates

Rainer Loacker established the family’s wine estate in 1979, and his son Hayo took the lead in 1998 before brothers Franz Josef and Hannes joined the wider enterprise. The family now has three estates in South Tyrol and Tuscany: Weingut Loacker, Corte Pavone and Valdifalco. At Weingut Loacker above Bolzano, vines grow on steep slopes around the Schwarhof.

The family’s organic and biodynamic farming methods include cover crops, compost and plant-based preparations. At Weingut Loacker, the wines ferment with native yeasts.
