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 Clare Valley

Australian reference for racy high-altitude Riesling (Mid North, 142 km north of Adelaide): the white king, austere when young — dry and mineral with notes of lime, orange blossom, crisp apple and a flint touch, taut acidity and exceptional ageing (5-7 years to decades). Signature Shiraz in reds (35%), powerful with notes of blackberry, plum, spices and a minty touch. Firm Cabernet as support. Cool climate, red-brown soils.


The wine region of Australie du Sud

Cradle of the great Australian Shiraz: powerful, sun-drenched reds with notes of blackberry, candied plum, pepper, chocolate and eucalyptus, ample tannins and vibrant fruit (Barossa, McLaren Vale). Firm, minty Cabernet Sauvignon on Coonawarra (terra rossa). Dry, lemony Riesling from Clare and Eden Valley, straight and taut. Fresh Sauvignon and Chardonnay from Adelaide Hills.

The word of the wine: Cuvée (champagne)

Juice harvested during the first pressing. The term "cuvée" is also used to describe the final blend of wines of a given quality. Tête de cuvée : the first juice to come out during the first pressing.
