Elena Walch flexes her white wine muscle to impressive results in this vintage. Offering enormous varietal purity and crispness, her 2019 Alto Adige Sauvignon Vigna Castel Ringberg is a bright and luminous wine with citrusy aromas that cede to tropical fruit, fresh basil, jasmine and almond blossom. Like most of the beautiful white wines that come from the Dolomites in the far north of Italy, there is a distinctive mineral note of crushed limestone or chalk as well. This is a 15,000-bottle production. Fruit comes from the Castel Ringberg vineyard just above the Caldaro Lake at a cool and breezy 400 meters above sea level.

The 2018 Alto Adige Sauvignon Vigna Castel Ringberg is a very fragrant and aromatically articulate wine that speaks the fluent language of the variety. You get a slightly heavier accent here, with creamy overtones of lemon mousse and passion fruit, and the pungent green or sharp notes of the grape have been successfully downplayed. Citrusy fiber and freshness are followed by a brief mineral-driven interlude of crushed white stone. Some 15,000 bottles were produced.

With 15,000 bottles made, the 2017 Alto Adige Sauvignon Castel Ringberg is a well-priced and reasonably accessible white wine that delivers on a promise of freshness and varietal purity. Sauvignon Blanc from Alto Adige has those zesty aromas of passion and tropical fruit, but it never reaches the pungent levels of aromatic intensity that you see in this grape from New Zealand, for example. Most of this wine is made in stainless steel with brief lees contact, whereas only 15% is fermented in oak.

The 2016 Alto Adige Sauvignon Castel Ringberg is a crisp and linear wine that showcases this classic vintage. The 2016 growing season was easy for grape farmers. An aromatic grape like Sauvignon Blanc tends to show even more brightness and intensity in a year like this. Green apple and tropical fruit are followed by pretty floral tones. Only 15% of the wine is fermented in oak.
