Just outside of the city of Bolzano is the town of Appiano sulla strada del vino, which literally translates to ‘Appiano on the street of wine.’ The town has also been called the ‘land of castles, lakes, and wine.’ But no matter what you call it, you will certainly understand why both names are so fitting. The town is famous for its grape cultivation, which is so successful in large part due the the unique weather of the area. The vines receive more than 2,000 hours of sun each year, and nine major vineyards are located in the town.
The castles part of the town’s second name comes from the fact that there are about 180 castles, fortresses, and manors across the town of Appiano sulla strada del vino and the surrounding areas. Of particular interest are Castel Appiano, Castel Corba, Castel Moos, and Castel Bovmont. But tourists will also surely spend a great deal of time wandering through the town’s cantine, or wine cellars, which offer the opportunity to sample or purchase the region’s specialties.
