Structured, original whites with a golden robe, ample palate and fresh alpine acidity, showing aromas of yellow fruits (pear, quince), candied citrus, linden, honey, white flowers and mineral notes with a slightly bitter finish. Reputed tonic, once given to new mothers. Discreet star of the Valais hillsides (Sierre, Sion, Conthey). Autochthonous Valais variety, one of Switzerland's oldest (recorded since the 14th century), with no link to humagne rouge.
Wine commune of the Upper Valais (Switzerland), nicknamed the "Swiss capital of red wines". Pinot Noir flagship red: fine and silky with signature notes of red cherry, wild strawberry, raspberry, undergrowth, sweet spices and mineral touch, fine tannins and elegant palate — alpine expression. Supple Gamay, dense Cornalina (autochthonous), spicy Humagne rouge. Whites: taut Chasselas (Fendant), mineral and saline Petite Arvine, ancient Heida.
