Alitalo Winery
Welcome
During the summer season, tourists are welcome to visit the Alitalo winery every day to enjoy the beautiful countryside and the farm’s products.
The Alitalo winery is a medium sized farm in the Uusimaa region. The winery was opened to the public in 1996, and tourism at the farm has grown over the years. The magnificent nature of Lohjansaari, the farm’s arable fields and the gorves of thousands of apple trees create a
an unforgettable experience in the near of the capital region.
The Alitalo winery is a place where the whole family can enjoy themselves. We offer enjoyable activities for children and adults. In addition to the farm’s own drinks, our fully licensed café also offers snacks to satisfy even the biggest appetites. Our wine boutique
get the farm’s own products to take home or even as gifts.
The farm’s cute animals will entertain children and adults alike, while a new tree trail and a round of mini-golf provide a nice escape from everyday life. A moment alone with adults over a glass of wine almost makes time stand still.
The farm grows apples and produces a variety of wines, ciders, and currant ciders. Over the years, the owner couple Sanna and Marko Maula have developed several new and local products. Product quality and diversity
efforts have been made to invest in. All products are handmade in Lohjansaari and made from domestic raw materials.
Towards the end of the summer season, there is also the opportunity to pick raspberries yourself. The exact date will be announced on the farm’s Facebook page.

The Viders and ciders
Our own signature products, the Viders, have become very popular over the years. The Viders are distinguished from ciders by the fact that no apple is used in their production. In other words, ciders are ”berry ciders”. You can call it cider
only drinks made from apples.
Our range also includes traditional apple ciders, made from apples grown on our own farm through spontaneous fermentation. The ciders are filtered.
Wines
We produce a wide range of wines from dry to sweet, and everything in between. In addition to apples, we use raspberries, gooseberries, lingonberries and black, white, red and green currants as raw materials for our wines. We also have a few
sparkling wine.
We are constantly developing new products and you are sure to find a wine that suits you.
In 2019, our sweet blackcurrant wine Juhani won the Finnish farm wine competition.
