Discover the grape variety: Malvoisie de Toscane
It was cultivated in ancient times and is believed to be of Greek origin. In Italy, associated with Trebbiano Toscano, it was used to produce the famous Chianti: these two white varieties are no longer part of the vineyard. In France, Tuscan Malvasia is practically unknown. It should be noted that many grape varieties have "malvasia" as a synonym, so confusion between them is always possible.

The wine region of Valais
The Valais is the largest wine region and appellation in Switzerland, responsible for around one third of the country's total wine production. The main Vineyard area covers the southeast-facing slopes of the dramatic Rhône river valley as the glacial waters run southwest between Leuk (Loeche in French) and Fully. The river changes direction at Martigny and then runs northwest to exit the valley and empty into Lac Léman (Lake Geneva). Vineyard area here comes to around 4,800 hectares (11,800 acres) and is generally located on (often steep) slopes and terraces between the flat, fertile, Heavy soils at the bottom of the valley - often given over to fruit production, industry and urban development - and the bare rock of the mountainside that towers above.
The word of the wine: Astringency
Chemical stimulation that tightens the mucous membranes of the mouth and causes a sensation of harshness, which is characteristic of the presence of tannins. With time, the tannins lose their harshness and become softer.
