The wine region of Flanthey
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.
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.
The word of the wine: White winemaking
White wines are obtained by fermentation of the juice after pressing. A pre-fermentation maceration is sometimes practiced to extract the aromatic substances from the skins. White wines are normally made from white grapes, but can also be made from red grapes (blanc de noirs). The grapes are then pressed as soon as they arrive at the vat house without maceration in order to prevent the colouring matter contained in the skins from "staining" the wine.
