Meet the Team

Nora

Nora works on the Sitenrain since 2006. Besides work, she finished her studies in 2015 and then started an apprenticeship as wine-grower which she finished in 2018. Now she applies all her knowledge to the Sitenrain. She likes to work in the vines and cares about our vegetable garden.

Benno

Since 2006 Benno is responsible for our vines. He grew up in a farmer’s family in eastern Switzerland and worked as a landscaper before joining the Sitenrain. When already working on the Sitenrain, he went to the centre for viticulture in Wädenswil to learn all about wine-growing. By now, he is a flying wine-grower, looking after the vines on the Sitenrain while also working in our partner winery in Sicily: Cantina Palmeri.

On

Already for a long time On is accociated with the Sitenrain. Since the summer of 2016 he’s officially a part of the team. He works in the vineyard two to three days a week. The other days, he works as a gardener. He makes a point of planting indigenous plants and making meaningful gardens. You can see this in our vegetable garden, a project of Nora an On.
