Elena Walch Pinot Grigio Castel Ringberg, Alto Adige, Italy

Elena Walch is a leading wine producer in the Alto Adige region of northeastern Italy. She runs her eponymous winery with the help of her two daughters, Julia and Karoline, and together they produce a variety of acclaimed wines. Elena is famed in the region for being one of the first to transform the vineyards by drastically lowering the yields, using high quality clones and implementing higher density plantings, among other quality focused tactics.

This wine is 100% Pinot Grigio from the Castel Ringberg vineyard. 85% is fermented in stainless steel while the remainder is fermented in used French oak barriques. The result is a lovely incarnation of this grape with ripe aromas of pear, sage and spice with a creamy mouthfeel, zippy acidity and lengthy, clean finish.
