Elena Walch is a 5-generation family-run estate in Alto Adige, a region in the North-East part of Italy, that led the wine quality revolution in the area and has gained a prominent international reputation. 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 approach. Today, the responsibility for the family business is in the hands of Elena’s daughters, Julia and Karoline. With 90 hectares of vines, including the two most representative, VIGNA Castel Ringberg in Caldaro und VIGNA Kastelaz in Tramin, Elena Walch is one of the most important producers in Alto Adige.

From one of the world's leading women winemakers, this cheerful yet sophisticated summer red is from a Mediterranean climate with warm summer days combined with cool mountain nights. And it's delicious chilled!

The 2022 Schiava has a bright ruby color, with a subtle cherry aroma. It tastes balanced and refined, thanks to its natural mild acidity and tannin. It leaves a pleasing bitter almond flavor at the end. Overall, it’s a tasteful, fruity red wine with a decent finish.
