RIFF Alois Lageder Löwengang Winery, Magrè, Alto Adige Selected WINERY NAME: RIFF WINERY LOCATION: Alois Lageder Löwengang winery, Magrè, Alto Adige VINEYARD LOCATION: Selected from growers in Veneto and Trentino-Alto Adige VINEYARD LAND: 123 acres (50 ha) contracted FARMING PRACTICES: Sustainable & Organic GRAPE VARIETIES: Pinot Grigio WINE STYLES: Dry white WINE REGIONS: Delle Venezie DOC TOTAL WINE PRODUCTION: 1,100,000 bottles (800,000 liters) YEAR FOUNDED: 1997 OWNER(S): The Lageder Family WINEMAKER(S): Jo Pfisterer, Georg Meissner, Paola Tenaglia As one of the iconic wine producers of Alto Adige, Alois Lageder and his family have developed very close relationships with many of the other winegrowers of the province and beyond. The Riff project is both an auxiliary brand for Lageder and an outlet for the grapes of an extended network of small, quality-driven farmers outside Alto Adige. The Riff Pinot Grigio is an inexpensive but well-made négociant wine that is sourced, blended, bottled, and marketed by the acclaimed Alois Lageder winery. The name comes from the German word for reef, reflecting the ancient oceanic origins of the Dolomite Alps. Though now soaring thousands of feet above the plains of the Po River Valley to the south, the Alps were once part of the seabed, where the remains of untold sea creatures slowly hardened into limestone. Millions of years ago, tectonic forces began to push the ocean floor upward to become the Alps of today. The decaying limestone of that prehistoric reef is now a major factor in the vineyard soil of northern Italy. Begun in the mid-1990s, the goal of the Riff project is to produce premium quality wines with distinctive character and style, unquestionable quality, and extraordinary market value. The Alois Lageder winemaking team carefully selects the wines on-site for their body, texture, elegant aromatics, and crisp acidity. They are matured on their lees in stainless steel tanks, then blended and bottled at Lageder's Löwengang winemaking facilities in Magrè, Alto Adige. The combination of grapes from numerous different vineyards in various locations gives the wines complexity and depth of flavor. The winery is currently undergoing an initiative with its winegrowing partners to have Riff certified organic by 2020. WINES IN THE RIFF PORTFOLIO · Riff Pinot Grigio Delle Venezie DOC.

The luminous limestone range is the result of geological transformation from ancient sea floor to mountaintop. The region is a landscape of grassy balconies perched above Alpine lakes, and Tyrolean hamlets nestled in lush valleys, crisscrossed by countless hiking and walking trails connecting villages, Alpine refuges, and cable cars. The Dolomites form the frontier between Germanic Northern Europe and the Latin South.

  • Minorities: South Tyrol in Italy
    Minorities: South Tyrol in Italy Italy and minorities Italy historically has always been a linguistically and culturally fragmented society. Because of this historical development, in Italy there have always been many regional and local differences in culture, economy and policy. Today, there is an intense concentration of minorities especially in the border regions, in the northeast and northwest of Italy, where there took place the wars and conflicts in the 20th century. Other areas with a higher concentration of minorities are the two main islands of Italy and the South of Italy where there are minorities from the Balkans or Greece. In the central part of Italy the most minorities disappeared, except Sinti and Roma communities. Today, there are twelve minorities which are recognized and protected by the Italian legislation (Article 6 of the Constitution and Law no. 482, 1999, art. 2): Albanian, Catalan, German, Greek, Slovenian, Croatian, French, French-Provençal, Friulan, Ladin, Occitan and Sardinian. About five percent of the Italian population (only territorial, regional or historical minorities; immigrants excluded) has another mother tongue than Italian (or Italian dialect). The case of South Tyrol The population of 463.000 inhabitants in 2001 consisted for the most part in 3 language groups: about 64% German speakers, about 24,5% Italian speakers, about 4% Ladin speakers and about 7,4% others. The conflict in South Tyrol is an expression of the main historical developments of the 20th century: After World War I, with the Treaty of St. Germain in 1919, the annexation of Trentino-Alto Adige by Italy took place. From 1922 onwards, the Fascists exercised an aggressive policy of Italianization towards the German- speaking population.

    C ULTURAL IDENT I TY STUD I E S The South Tyrol Question, CIS 1866–2010 Georg Grote From National Rage to Regional State South Tyrol is a small, mountainous area located in the central Alps. Despite its modest geographical size, it has come to represent a success story in the Georg Grote protection of ethnic minorities in Europe. When Austrian South Tyrol was given to Italy in 1919, about 200,000 German and Ladin speakers became Italian citizens overnight. Despite Italy’s attempts to Italianize the South Tyroleans, especially during the Fascist era from 1922 to 1943, they sought to Question, 1866–2010 Tyrol South The maintain their traditions and language, culminating in violence in the 1960s. In 1972 South Tyrol finally gained geographical and cultural autonomy from Italy, leading to the ‘regional state’ of 2010. This book, drawing on the latest research in Italian and German, provides a fresh analysis of this dynamic and turbulent period of South Tyrolean and European history. The author provides new insights into the political and cultural evolution of the understanding of the region and the definition of its role within the European framework. In a broader sense, the study also analyses the shift in paradigms from historical nationalism to modern regionalism against the backdrop of European, global, national and local historical developments as well as the shaping of the distinct identities of its multilingual and multi-ethnic population. Georg Grote was born in the Lower Rhine Valley in northwest Germany. He has lived in Ireland since 1993 and lectures in Western European history at CIS University College Dublin.

  • South Tyrol: a Model for All? the Other Face of Minority Accommodation
    DRAFT – NOT TO BE CITED WITHOUT AUTHOR’S PERMISSION Title of the paper: South Tyrol: a model for all? The other face of minority accommodation. Author: Andrea Carlà Abstract: South Tyrol, an Italian province with a German-speaking population and a sophisticated system to protect its cultural characteristics, is generally consider a model to deal with national minorities and accommodate ethnic-linguistic diversity in contexts ranging from Bosnia-Herzegovina to Iraq and recently Ukraine. Most academic works on South Tyrol provide legal descriptions of the South Tyrol system to protect minorities and/or analyze the degree of protection awarded to the German speaking population. This paper, instead, aims at providing an analysis of the South Tyrol model from the point of view of the Italian speaking population living in the territory. Italian speakers represent one quarter of South Tyrolean inhabitants and in the past have shown a so-called “uneasiness” with their status in South Tyrol. Using various indicators, including voting patterns, demographic trends and surveys, the paper will investigate how the Italian speaking population has experienced the South Tyrol system to protect minority and to what extent South Tyrolean policies have been successful in accommodating ethnic- linguistic diversity and promoting a multicultural society. In this way, the paper brings a new perspective for our understanding and evaluation of arrangements for the accommodation of national minorities and their cultural diversity, in contrast to a prevalent tendency to discuss minority rights and minority protection from the point of view of the minority. In particular, the findings on the South Tyrolean experience will be used to ponder on the protection of the Hungarian minority and interethnic relations in Romania, especially in Szeklerland.
