Elena Walch Sauvignon 2022

Alto Adige, Italy Elena Walch Sauvignon is a delightfully refreshing Sauvignon Blanc from the Alto Adige region of northeast Italy. Elena Walch is a leading Alto Adige wine estate, in family hands, and belongs to the elite in Italian wine production, with international success. 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 the daughters, Julia and Karoline Walch, already the fifth generation. The philosophy of the estate is dedicated to its terroir – the idea that wines must be the individual expression of their soil, climate and cultivation in the vineyard – and that this must be maintained according to principles of sustainability and passed on to the next generation. Elena Walch Sauvignon captivates with its deep yellow color with green hints and aromatic bouquet of ripe gooseberries, papaya and elderberries as well as fine notes of herbs. Juicy acidity, elegant structure and an inviting finish characterize the palate. 100% Sauvignon Blanc from calcareous soils with sand content on southeast and southwest oriented vineyards. Entirely handpicked. Enjoy Elena Walch Sauvignon with seafood, linguini with clam sauce, grilled chicken and summer salads.
