Vintage 2021

A late harvest and lovely, stable weather at the crush characterized Alto Adige’s 2021 vintage. Thus the grapes could be left to ripen ideally, and thanks to the high temperature differentials between day and night, a great deal of aroma could form. The result is an extraordinary 2021 white wine vintage. (Südtirol Wein)

Curiosity

The name "Ateyon" is a pure fantasy name; very melodic and meanwhile a synonym for our Parade white wine.

Food Pairing

Ideal for sumptuous starters, white meat, fish - even grilled! Sophisticated risotti are also perfect companions.
