For the third time, Marlengo’s Wine Culture has awarded the prestigious title of "South Tyrolean WineCulture Ambassador." The accolade for 2020 was granted to the Independent Winegrowers of South Tyrol. Due to the pandemic, the award ceremony was postponed to 2021.

A Distinguished Honor for the Independent Winegrowers of South Tyrol
As WineCultureAmbassadors, the Independent Winegrowers of South Tyrol represent outstanding dedication to the international reputation of South Tyrolean wine. Through their commitment, they enrich the diverse and tradition-filled world of wine in the region and beyond. The plaque for the award, designed by Laurin Kofler, emphasizes the significance of the winners.

- Enriching it with innovative approaches
- Promoting wine culture beyond regional borders
- Demonstrating extraordinary commitment and sustainable concepts
- Embodying true ambassadorship

Mairhofer also emphasized that Marling cannot be nominated during the first five years. He highlighted the importance of fostering special projects and giving them public recognition.

Thanks to the Marling Tourism Association
Special thanks were extended to the Marling Tourism Association, a reliable partner in establishing Marling’s wine culture for tourism, the economy, and the local population. Greetings from the Councillor and Mayor Councillor Schuler stressed the importance of public relations for winegrowers and the tourism sector. He emphasized that awarding the WineCultureAmbassador is an essential part of these efforts. Mayor Felix Lanpacher thanked Mairhofer for his dedication to promoting Marling’s wine culture.

At the conclusion, each participant received a copy of the book series “So kocht Südtirol – Drink Book” by bestselling authors Heinrich Gasteiger, Gerhard Wieser, and Helmuth Bachmann, along with beverage expert Christine Mayr. A special treat was the Marlengo Wine Praline by Klaus Pircher, available at his hotel. This praline combines wine artistry and indulgence with exquisite fillings of Merlot, Grappa, and Passito.

Frost protection – safeguarding apple blossoms 🌸🍏

Low temperatures in spring can damage delicate apple blossoms and threaten the harvest. ❄️ The solution? Frost protection spraying! During cold snaps, blossoms are sprayed with water, which freezes into a layer of ice, protecting them from the frost. 🌱🍏 Thanks to this method, apple farmers can protect their crops and minimize frost damage. A fascinating natural phenomenon! 🌿🍎

Kaiserschmarrn – ever tried it?🥰😋
After a relaxing walk, a long hike – or just because:
Golden brown, fluffy and deliciously fragrant – Kaiserschmarrn is a true highlight for many. 💛
It’s usually served with raisins, apple sauce or lingonberries – simply a dream! 😋

Raisins – yes or no? And what’s your favorite topping? 😄🤔
