Description

My great-grandfather Bartholomäus Fromm already produced wine from our vineyards. In 1912, the "Schöpfiwingert Pino Noir" was awarded gold for the first time at a gastronomy trade fair. In the meantime, a lot has changed - only the vines have remained. I took over the management of our winery at the young age of 18. Starting a family and longing for the wide world prompted Ruth and me to build up a second winery in New Zealand in 1991 with a lot of enthusiasm. Since then, I have been a wine wanderer in two worlds. Paradoxically, New Zealand opened my eyes to Burgundy. The contacts with Burgundy winegrowers and the experience with a Henry Jayer wine finally shook me awake. At the age of 55, I have now decided to devote myself entirely to the Swiss business in Malans again. I sold the LaStrada winery in Marlborough, New Zealand in 2007. Through my favorite vineyard, Clayvin Vineyard, which I kept, I didn't completely break down the barriers to one of the most beautiful islands in the world. The Malans winery is a medium-sized family business with 4.5 hectares. The main part is still the noble plant, the Pinot Noir vine.
