Elena Walch Pinot Bianco Selezione DOC

A Pinot Blanc that shows what Alto Adige can get out of this often underestimated grape variety: clear fruit, lively acidity, and a precision that convinces from the first sip.

Elena Walch is one of the defining addresses in South Tyrol. The winery, based in Tramin, manages vineyards in the Adige Valley and on the hills around Kurtatsch — soils of limestone and porphyry that give the wines structure and mineral freshness. The Selezione line stands for hand-picked grapes from the best plots of the vintage.

In the glass, a light straw yellow appears. The nose is clear and direct: white peach, pear, and a hint of almond, plus a fine floral note. On the palate, the wine is slender and precise — not a broad, heavy style, but a lively acid structure that keeps the wine vibrant. The finish is clean and of pleasant length.

Elena Walch

Elena Walch – architect by passion, winemaker by conviction. Since 1985, she has dedicated herself to her vineyards with full commitment. Her motto: "Good wine does not grow by itself!"

She has uncompromisingly transformed the two South Tyrolean cru sites, Castel Ringberg and Kastelaz, which are solely owned by the family. Piece by piece, she converted the pergola systems into modern Guyot cultivation with Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet, and Merlot.

The result: low yields, healthy grapes, gentle aging with targeted use of wood. Fruity, elegant white wines – and red wines, pure "tigers on velvet paws." South Tyrolean top class with a clear signature.
