Ponkler is a vineyard located at 750 meters above sea level and facing south and southwest. The soil is predominantly weathered volcanic porphyry. Vines here were planted in the year 2000 from a selection of French clones, which have proven to be very suitable for high altitudes. The vines are trained with Guyot method at high density.

The Haas family has been growing grapes in Montagna in the province of Bolzano for generations. However, it was only with Franz, who died prematurely in 2022, that they began to produce and bottle quality wines. Franz studied at Geisenheim in Germany before working as a broker of Italian wines in the German market. After several years, he took over the running of the family business.
