The 2020 harvest
The spring of 2020 in South Tyrol appeared like a big outdoor painting: the snow sparkled on the mountain tops, while the flowers flowered in the gardens. This season set off early advancement of the vines, followed by a hectic summer season. The harvest, which started in early September, took advantage of warm days and cool nights throughout a fall defined by unsteady weather condition.

Elena Walch is the white wine artist of this work, popular for her Grande Cuvée “Beyond The Clouds” and the Gewürztraminer Vigna “Kastelaz”. In her vineyards, primarily on the slopes of Termeno and Caldaro, in the heart of the South Tyrolean White Wine Path, her children Julia and Karoline continue this household custom, including a note of heat and devotion to every bottle produced.
