Flagship commune of the Lower Valais in Switzerland, the "Village of Petite Arvine", south-facing slopes on ochre granites and gneiss.

Supple Gamay, peppery high-altitude Syrah, spicy Cornalin and Humagne Rouge, ample Marsanne. Dry alpine climate.

Altitude reds: fine Pinot Noir, crisp Gamay, native Cornalin and Humagne Rouge, spicy and deep. Highly precise alpine age-worthy wines.
The word of the wine: Botrytis cinerea
This fungus, also called noble rot, develops during the over-ripening phase and is an ally of great sweet white wines, when it concentrates the juice of the berries. It requires the humidity of morning fogs and beautiful sunny days, gives musts very rich in sugar and brings to the wines the famous taste of "roasted".
