The winery is located in the municipality of St. Justina above the city of Bolzano in the Italian wine-growing region of South Tyrol (Trentino-Alto Adige). The estate was founded in 1979 by the South Tyrolean winegrowing pioneer Rainer Loacker through the purchase of the Schwarhof, which was already mentioned in a document in 1334. Today it is run in the second generation by his sons Hayo and Franz Josef Loacker. The family also owns two vineyards in Tuscany called Loacker Corte Pavone in Montalcino and Loacker Valdifalco in the Maremma, and since 2009 another one in Styria (Austria). All of them are operated according to the rules of Biodynamic viticulture. The first organic wine of northern Italy was produced on the Schwarhof in 1979.
