About Ortler distillery
The Ortler distillery is located in Eppan on the South Tyrolean Wine Route. Surrounded by vineyards and apple orchards, the Ortler farm is where the Ortler distillery has been since 2011. Here on the family farm, Alexander has realized his dream of producing finest distillates of the highest quality. A sip of these schnapps is reminiscent of happy summer evenings and the scent of fruit trees, fresh apple sauce or a walk in the vineyards.
The basic ingredient of these noble products grows in the region, then what comes from local orchards is distilled. Only the fruit which he himself would like to bite, is fed into the boiler. Apples, particularly aromatic old varieties, are grown in Kaltern, whereas the apricots come from the Vinschgau. The fruit is sorted, harvested sun-ripened, picked by hand and cleaned.
Opening times: At the Eppan tourism association you can book a tour and tasting at the distillery detail. This takes place every Monday!
To keep the typical fruit aroma unaltered - this is what the high art of distilling boils down to. And Alexander Ortler is a true master of it. Additives, flavorings and sugar do not come into the picture - only the pure, natural and unadulterated taste of fruit comes into the bottle. Also, some of the finest wines of Italy come from the vineyards of the region, the perfect prerequisite for pomace brandies of highest quality.
Due to the high quality processing the products of the Ortler distillery have competed from the outset with elite Italian brands and have already won a number of awards and prizes. At the Destillata 2013 Ortler distillery products obtained the seal of the highest quality and the Moscato Giallo - Tresterbrand was repeatedly named "Brandy of the Year"! A visit to the distillery and a tasting of high-quality products is certainly worthwhile.
