Discover the grape variety: Grosse Arvine

Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate with preserved acidity, and undemonstrative aromas of citrus and white flowers – a less distinctive profile than Petite Arvine. More productive. Almost absent from commercial cultivation, preserved in Valaisan variety collections for its heritage value and ampelographic interest. A rare Valaisan white grape, cousin of Petite Arvine, grown in negligible quantities in Valais.
