Humagne Rouge

Humagne Rouge is a black grape, the result of a centuries-old cross in the Aosta Valley between Cornalin and an unknown grape variety. Humagne Rouge arrived in Valais via the Grand Saint-Bernard pass. Arrived late in Valais, at the end of the 19th century, Humagne Rouge has become an indisputable second great wine from Valais after Cornalin with a strong character. It is a true amateur’s wine, best enjoyed young and with age, it will go well with game.
