Hoch Klaus Winery
HochKlaus is a winery in South Tyrol, offering wines that are anything but typically South Tyrolean. Indeed, Klaus, the South Tyrolean winemaker, has gained his experience abroad.
There's one thing the winery, the winemaker, and the wines have in common, though: they want to be as authentic as possible - rather down-to-earth self-support than posh glamour.
High up above Bolzano, in Cornedo, you can find Klaus and his winery HochKlaus. Not a picture-perfect winery, but an honest one. Wine & winemaker.
The winery is an ensemble of atmosphere, plants, animals and humans. An open drawing represents that on the label. The logo puts everything together in a circle (as a world).
