Elena Walch is a fifth-generation family-run estate in Alto Adige, a region in the northeastern 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 the Elena’s daughters, Julia and Karoline. ​With 90 hectares of vines, including the two most iconic in the region, Vigna Castel Ringberg in Caldaro and Vigna Kastelaz in Tramin, Elena Walch is one of the most important producers in Alto Adige. The estate is internationally respected for varietal wines sourced from multiple proprietary locations, ‘Vigna’ wines from some of the most acclaimed sites in the valley, and award-winning, top cuvées such as the renowned Beyond the Clouds.
