Discover the grape variety: Goron de Bovernier

Its origin is most certainly Valdôtaine (Italy), still cultivated in the Entremont Valley in the Swiss Valais and totally unknown in other countries. It is the result of a natural cross between a still unknown or even extinct variety and the Cornalin du Valais or rouge du pays. It is the grandson of the humagne rouge or petit rouge and would also have genetic links with the rèze and the chasselas. The Goron de Bovernier is registered in the Official Catalogue of wine grape varieties list B.

The wine region of South Island

Central Otago, near the bottom of New Zealand's South Island, vies for the title of world's most southerly wine region. Vineyards cling to the sides of mountains and high above river gorges in this dramatic landscape. Pinot Noir has proven itself in this challenging Terroir, and takes up nearly three-quarters of the region's vineyard area. The typical Central Otago Pinot Noir is intense and deeply colored, with flavors of doris plum, Sweet spice and bramble.
