The wine region of Martigny
Heart of the Swiss Lower Valais at the bend of the Rhône, ~120 ha of steep terraced vineyards on dry-stone walls at the foot of the Alps. Fendant (Chasselas) as the everyday white, but above all Valais specialties — Petite Arvine, an endemic variety, as a refined white with lively citrus, glycine and a saline-mineral hint; opulent Humagne Blanche and Ermitage. Cornalin ("Rouge du Pays") as a rare signature red with griotte cherry, blackberry and floral notes. Sun-drenched Syrah.
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.
