At around 800m in altitude, in the Valais region of southern Switzerland, near the town of Arbaz, Hans-Peter Schmidt has been producing organic and biodynamic wines since 2004. With a large focus on pinot noir, and a few alpine white varietals, Hans-Peter produces age worthy natural wines that are served in some of the world's best restaurants, including Noma, Eleven Madison Park, Lyles and many more.
Mythopia is a project designed to explore the effects of bio-diversity on wine production. Hans’ own words describe this project the best. Mythopia vineyard has become a paradise to fragrant flowers, fruit trees, rare birds and more than 60 species of butterflies. It’s a vineyard exuding biodiversity where the ecosystem is sustained by a symbiotic network of uncountable species.
