The Climb
Since 2007, Werner Stucky has served as oenologist of Cantine Stucky-Hügin, a role centered on the cellar’s steady routines. The work here is long-form and exact: guiding fermentation, overseeing maturation, and keeping the producer’s style coherent from one season to the next. In that setting, Werner Stucky’s value lies in continuity and control, with timing and precision carrying more weight than display.
Today
The record of Werner Stucky’s craft sits in the named bottlings attached to it. Temenos is one clear marker, while Tracce di Sassi and Conte di Luna extend the same line of work. Together they point to a cellar approach defined by distinct wines, each bottle carrying its own name and its own place within the producer’s output.
Signature
Werner's signature wines include del Portico Riserva 1983, Temenos, Tracce di Sassi, and Conte di Luna. The sequence reaches back to del Portico Riserva 1983 as an early regional barrique milestone and runs through the named bottlings that continue to define his output. Read together, they show a body of work built on repeated standards rather than one-off gestures, with each wine holding its own identity inside the same house style.
