Dornach – Dolomiti Bianco – Louis 41 – 2022
Pinot Blanc needs certain things to truly thrive: complex soils, perfect sun exposure and a good breeze. Dornach, sitting at an elevation of 350 meters, in the idyllic Alto Adige region, is perfectly positioned to grow world class Pinot Blanc, and the farm’s embrace of the natural world and deft touch in the cellar creates a wine with intense, crystalline personality and passion. This cuvee blends Chardonnay (40%) for lovely added texture and complexity.

The true embodiment of living in harmony with nature can be found at Dornach. Patrick Uccelli, his wife Karoline, and their three young children farm the terraced vineyards above Salorno originally planted by his family in 1836.


The ideals of biodynamicsare beautifully rendered here where grapes, other fruits, vegetables, grains, bees and livestock all exist harmoniously creating a closed ecosystem with amazing biodiversity. Dornach’s Pinot Blanc and Pinot Nero burst with varietal and regional character, pure expressions of site and personality.
The estate began their transition to biodynamics in 2008 and were certified by Demeter in 2011. Simultaneously they were certified organic by Bioland. A closed system with most preparations sourced from within the estate.
