Description
“The new millennium was to begin with a new ‘super cuvée’, the selection of the best grapes of the vintage, as the crowning glory of Elena Walch's wine selections. Thus, with the 2000 vintage, Alto Adige‘s first white ‘super cuvée’ was born, and today a multiple award-winning white icon of Italy: a parcel selection of the highest quality grapes from different grape varieties, fermented and matured together in wood. The different levels of maturity of the grape varieties and a selection that is already created in the vineyard are reflected in the untamed character of the cuvée. The wine should express the best of each vintage from Elena Walch's vineyards - year after year "Beyond the Clouds".
