LAFÓA
Lafóa: from the pilot vineyard to the flagship wines
The name Lafóa brings to mind the beginning of the quality revolution in Alto Adige and the pioneering work carried out by Cantina Colterenzio in the 1980s. At the time, the pioneer Luis Raifer not only planted new grape varieties on the vineyard of the same name, but at the same time introduced new quality standards: less yield for grapes and better quality wine. It was precisely on this pilot vineyard that the "Lafóa idea" was born: the introduction of new quality standards that are still rigorously followed today by both the winegrowing members and the collaborators in the cellar. Today Lafóa is synonymous with whites and reds with a strong structure, refined and with great aging potential.
