Gaierhof  

Family   broker  

The Gaierhof winery started its history back in 1940 with Germano Togn, who at that time was a wine broker. Germano started to vinify the grapes of farmers in the area and sell it in bulk in the region of Trentino. Within 15 years he acquired 5 wineries and started to produce selected parcels. In 1976, after the sudden death of his father Germano, things began to look better for the Togn family, the now-flourishing bulk-wine market permitted the ever-entrepreneurial Luigi to continue investing in modern equipment. They started to sell the wine bottled.

In 1991, Romina, Luigi’s eldest child, entered the winery management, at first directing the group’s finances, and later marketing and sales in Italy and abroad. In the late 1990s, it was the turn of Valentina; with academic training in agriculture, she oriented her activities towards the production side of the business.

Today Gaierhof is still a Negociant purchasing grapes from various growers in the region, this does not affect the quality as the Togn Family have a long relation with them and making sure that the grapes are at the best of their quality.
