The wine region of Fully

Flagship commune of the Lower Valais in Switzerland, the "Village of Petite Arvine", south-facing slopes on ochre granites and gneiss. Petite Arvine signature as king white (recorded since 1602): taut and saline with grapefruit, rhubarb, white flowers, wisteria, almond and a vibrant alpine mineral touch, crystalline palate from dry to dried — mythic Valais speciality. Supple Gamay, peppery high-altitude Syrah, spicy Cornalin and Humagne Rouge, ample Marsanne. Dry alpine climate.


The wine region of Valais

Switzerland's largest vineyard, capital of native grapes. Straight, precise alpine whites: light, floral Chasselas (Fendant), signature Petite Arvine with saline, grapefruit and rhubarb notes, rich, apricoty Amigne, mineral Humagne Blanche. Altitude reds: fine Pinot Noir, crisp Gamay, native Cornalin and Humagne Rouge, spicy and deep. Highly precise alpine age-worthy wines.
