Food Production - Mendrisio, Ticino, Switzerland
Meinrad C. Perler, founder of Agriloro SA has always had a strong link with agriculture. Son of farmers, born and raised in the canton of Fribourg and moved at the age of 25 to a completely different profession, he decided in 1981 Ticinoto acquire the "Tenimento dell'Ör", in the municipality of Arzo, thus returning to his origins. The estate is very old and is already mentioned in documents from the 18th century as one of the most important vineyards in Mendrisiotto.From its acquisition, the estate began a path of viticultural renewal initially based on the regional viticultural tradition, but then increasingly influenced by the passion for experimentation and innovation that Meinrad C. Perler has acquired over time and for which Reiner Zierock, German agronomist and researcher, has made a strong contribution to the winery's viticultural and oenological approach.Another great leap forward was made in 2002 with the purchase of the "La Prella" estate in Genestrerio, a hamlet of Mendrisio. In both vine cultivation and winemaking we try to operate as much as possible using natural and respectful methods. Much of the production and almost all the specialities are aged in barriques. In 1989 an ageing cellar was also purchased in Mendrisio, built under the slopes of Monte Generoso.
