Our Pinot Grigio captivates with light straw yellow and fruity notes of ripe pears, white pepper and a bit of sage in the nose. Mineral-salty richness and a prolonged are distinctive on the palate. A wine with backbone and a likeable companion to many dishes. As an aperitif, with pasta dishes, mild cheeses, grilled fish and cheese fondue.
Encouraging quality and innovation, Elena Walch stood at the head of the Alto Adige quality revolution and has gained local and international esteem for her efforts. An architect by trade, Elena Walch married into one of the oldest and most significant wine families of the region and brought new, modern concepts to the traditional establishment. Now, the responsibility for the family business is being put into the hands of her daughters, Julia and Karoline Walch, already the fifth generation.

Bright, balanced and eminently sippable, this offers a creamy mix of kiwi fruit, pear, orchard blossoms and ground ginger backed by blood orange-infused acidity. Stony finish. Drink now.

Aromas of green apple and honeydew melon follow through to the rounded palate before a slightly bitter finish recalling almond. Tangy acidity keeps if fresh.
