A culinary tradition with history

Törggelen is a centuries-old South Tyrolean tradition. After the grape harvest, people would gather in the Torggl – the room with the wine press – to eat, celebrate, and of course, taste the “Nuie” (new wine). This ritual lives on today: in good company, dishes such as Schlutzkrapfen (halfmoon pasta), homemade sausages with sauerkraut, dumplings, and roasted chestnuts are served, accompanied by fresh wine or the sweet Suser.
