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.

Vintage 2018

Satisfied with Quality and Quantity The 2018 wine harvest began early in Alto Adige, with lower elevations starting to pick as early as August 20. And toward the end of September, most of the grapes were already in the wineries – well matured and in reasonable numbers. With the white wines, Alto Adige’s winegrowers and winemakers are without exception very satisfied. With the red wines, 2018 will be a great year for Cabernet and Merlot, but also for Pinot Noir and Lagrein. (Südtirol Wein)
