Discover the grape 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.

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: Reserve wine (champagne)

Older wines, kept in vats or aged in wood in some houses, or kept in magnums at Bollinger. A small percentage of these wines are used in the blending of non-vintage wines in order to bring greater aromatic complexity.
