Wine-Highlight Events Eppan 2025

As in grandfather's time, the last load of grapes is brought to the village center in a vat by an old festively decorated wagon. The wagon is adorned with a harvest wreath, on which a wine saying can be read every year. Once at the Tannerhof, the grapes are pressed in a historic wine press and the fresh grape must is offered to visitors for tasting. All this takes place under the strict and watchful eye of the Saltner. Festival with wines from the Girlaner winegrowers, Törggelen specialties and music.

This year, “Eppan Wine” celebrates the treasures of the vineyard, focusing on the vineyard itself and the treasures that ripen in it. For the Night of the Cellars on Friday, June 13, a vineyard in South Tyrol will shine in green light for the first time. The color green symbolizes the white wines, which account for around 70% of vinification in Eppan. As soon as darkness falls, a vineyard under the Gleifkirche church will glow in lush green. The lighting is powered by electricity from a photovoltaic system, consuming around 15 kW. This makes the event sustainable and environmentally friendly. The four-hour illumination is a one-off event and is also animal-friendly thanks to the green light.

The Night of the Cellars promises wine enjoyment, encounters with winegrowers and the illumination of a vineyard. Nine Eppan wine producers present their farms and cellar treasures. As these have their origins in the vineyard, a vineyard on the Gleifhügel hill shines in lush green - a tribute to the white wine culture that characterizes Eppan. Participating Eppan wine producers: Weingut Cora, Kellerei Girlan, Weingut Klaus Lentsch, Kellerei K. Martini & Sohn, Kellerei Schreckbichl, Kellerei Sankt Pauls, Kellerei St. Michael-Eppan, Weingut Stroblhof, Sektmanufaktur Winkler. No registration necessary.
