The wine walk: from Mazon/Mazzon to Pinzon/Pinzano
Südtirols Süden
This walk links two wine villages: Egna and Montagna. Through the village of Mazzon the walk, which snakes through lovely vineyards, leads to Pinzano. This is the home of a fine red wine, Pinot Noir, which finds the perfect growing conditions on these hills and as such is able to express its features in the best possible ways.
