Avenue Srl
Featured in the current Cellar Offering
Avenue SRL was formerly known as Morrison SRL. The enterprise is a négociant business representing a number of small wineries throughout Italy in the export market. It is controlled by winemaker Werner Walch, a German speaking Italian, operating a family business in the Alto Adige or Sud Tyrol. Walch's own vineyards total 35 hectares in Termeno and Caldaro which puts them in the Alto Adige and Caldaro DOCs. He also buys grapes from about 80 growers who have supplied the family business for generations. The winery bottles mostly wines of the Alto Adige DOC, the single varietals and Lago di Caldaro DOC, sold in both Italy and abroad. Along the way he gave himself a year's experience marketing in California leaving him with an appreciation for internationally made wines. In Canada he supplies Italian wines to The Opimian Society and to a few restaurants in Ontario.
