About This Vineyard
The estate name, Monte Bernardi, dates back to 1085. The majority of the vineyards are over 40 years of age, with the first wine produced in 1992. Prior to 1992, the grapes were sold to neighboring farms. The Schmelzer family purchased Monte Bernardi at the end of 2003 and has since invested great amounts of time, love and money in the vineyards, the winery and the villa.
