About the winery

The Falkenstein vineyard is a family run winery located on the slopes of Sonnenburg Mountain in Nuturno. It all started in 1989 when Franz Pratzner and his wife Bernadette decided to convert their passion to wine into their profession. Today, family traditions of winemaking are carried forward by the founders and their two daughters Magdalena and Michaela.

The grapes cultivated are mainly white: Riesling, Pinot Bianco and Sauvignon, and only Pinot Noir for the red. Riesling is one of the most renown in Italy with a multitude of recognitions and awards received.
