Wine has been grown at the Popphof winery in Marling since 1592, and the farm has been owned by the Menz family since 1722. Today, Andreas Menz runs the winery, working as both winemaker and cellar master. With extensive experience, he focuses on careful vinification and controlled fermentation to preserve the characteristics of the vineyards and the climate in the wines.
The winery produces around 25,000 bottles per year, with Lagrein playing a special role. The Lagrein from Merano, like that from Popphof, requires more time to mature and has a distinctive, angular structure compared to other South Tyrolean Lagreins.
