Discover the grape variety: Goron de Bovernier
Structured and elegant reds with a deep purple colour, firm yet melted tannins and a full palate with preserved acidity, offering signature aromas of red fruits (cherry, raspberry), spices and fresh alpine notes. A modest ageing profile. Preserved for its heritage value, it produces artisan high-altitude cuvées by a few Valais winemakers attached to rare varieties. Swiss black autochthonous variety from Valais, grown almost exclusively in Bovernier.

The word of the wine: Bleeding
Old practice for red wines. As soon as the vat is filled with grapes, the tap is opened. A sweet but clear juice escapes from the vat (it can also be used to make rosé). The colour and density of the juice is enhanced, but it should not be overdone. Rarely more than 10% of the volume of a vat, otherwise you risk losing fruit and bringing in bitterness.
