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 wine region of California
Powerful, sunny reds: dense Napa Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, chocolate, tobacco, ample tannins), spicy, jammy Zinfandel from the Sierra Foothills, silky red-fruited Pinot Noir on the cool coast (Sonoma, Russian River, Central Coast). Opulent, buttery Chardonnay, notes of yellow fruit and vanilla. Varied climate, from the hot interior to the Pacific-cooled coast. 80% of US production, 139 AVAs including Napa (1st AVA, 1981).
The word of the wine: Draft liquor (champagne)
After blending, the wine is bottled with a liqueur de tirage (a mixture of sugar and wine) and a yeast (selected yeasts). The yeast attacks the sugar and creates carbon dioxide. The fermentation, which lasts about two months, is prolonged by an ageing period (15 months minimum in total). The bottle is capped (some rare vintages are capped with a staple and a cork).
