The "Gummerhof - Malojer Wein- und Sektkellerei" winery is located in the north of Bolzano in the Italian wine-growing area of South Tyrol ( Trentino-South Ty rol region). The Gummerhof, which was first mentioned in a document in 1480, was acquired in 1880 by Joseph Trafojer, who set up a winery and distillery. The wines were delivered to the imperial court in Wien, among others. In 1948, his son-in-law Rudolf Malojer reactivated the business, which had been shut down in the meantime. Today the winery is run by his son Alfred Malojer and his wife Elisabeth, who are supported by their fifth generation son Urban and his wife Helena. There is also a vinotheque attached with a restaurant serving traditional South Tyrolean cuisine.
For my many years of work as an editor with a wine and culinary focus, I always like to inform myself about special questions at Wine lexicon. Spontaneous reading and following links often leads to exciting discoveries in the wide world of wine.
