More informations about the variety Humagne rouge
Structured, wild reds with a sustained ruby robe, firm tannins and fresh alpine acidity, with aromas of red fruit (cherry, raspberry), violet, garrigue, spice, dried herbs and characteristic animal notes. Dense palate, fine ageing potential. Star of the great Valais reds on the sun-drenched slopes of the Swiss Rhône (Sierre, Salquenen, Chamoson). Autochthonous Aosta Valley variety, identical to Cornalin d'Aoste in Italy, with no genetic link to Humagne Blanche.

Wine hamlet in central Valais (commune of Lens), south-facing slopes of the Sierre hillside bathed in sunshine. Fendant (Chasselas) is the signature white — dry and delicate with lively notes of white flowers, white-fleshed fruits, almond and a mineral touch. Pinot Noir dominates (40%) as elegant red with red fruits and an altitude-spiced touch, fine tannins. Supple Gamay, indigenous Cornalin and Humagne, Syrah and racy Arvine as complements.
