Elena Walch’s Castel Ringberg vineyard is a very special,<br />

unique location home to a variety of soil types dating back to<br />

by the Alpine arc that traces a horizontal line to the North and the Apennines that<br />

run longitudinally from North to South. Mountain viticulture has a fundamental<br />

impact on the general picture of Italian winegrowing.<br />
