The wine region of Sierre
Largest wine-growing commune of Swiss Valais at the heart of the Alpine arc, steep south-east slopes on schist and glacial moraines.

Fendant (Chasselas) as white king (~40%): taut and mineral (green apple, citrus, almond). Vibrant Petite Arvine, ample Johannisberg, supple Gamay.
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: Overmaturation
When the grapes reach maturity, the skin becomes permeable and progressively loses water, which causes a concentration phenomenon inside the berry. This is called over-ripening or passerillage.
