red grape

Humagne Rouge

Extreme high-altitude sun of the Valais Alps; ripens exceptionally late.

Known as: Humagne Rouge, Humagne

Humagne Rouge is an ancient Swiss variety grown on the steepest, most extreme vineyards of the Valais, ripening so late it arrives after everyone has picked.

It yields sturdy, rustic reds with red berry, pepper, wild herbs and an eminently alpine minerality.

For the buyer, Humagne Rouge is heritage with altitude — a rare taste of Switzerland's impossible terraces.
