Petite Arvine

High alpine sun and cool nights of Switzerland's Valais terraces.

Known as: Petite Arvine

Petite Arvine is Switzerland's most-loved white grape, grown on the steep sunny terraces of the Valais, where it has earned international cult status.

It produces vividly fresh whites with grapefruit, apricot and a striking saline minerality, along with luscious late-harvest versions.

For the buyer, Petite Arvine is mountaintop crispness — rare, refined and unforgettable with fondue.
