✨ White Humagne is celebrated as the oldest white vine variety hailing from Valais, with roots that trace back to a sales agreement in Sion from 1313, known then as Humagny. This unique varietal is famous for its impressive iron content, boasting up to three times more iron than other wines, making it a fortifying choice that’s particularly appreciated by the elderly.
🌟 Revered as "the wine for new mothers," White Humagne is the perfect companion for new moms seeking a refreshing boost of strength. This exquisite wine nearly vanished in the 20th Century due to phylloxera and the dominance of fendant and johannisberg varieties, but has been lovingly revived for discerning palates.
🍷 Product Characteristics: The wine displays a stunning yellow-green color and tantalizes the senses with a fragrant bouquet of lime blossom, liquorice, and rose petals. On the palate, it is elegant and subtle, with delightful hints of lime blossom and wisteria, followed by a long, delicious aftertaste.
🌡️ With an alcohol content of 12.5% vol, this wine is best served at a refreshing temperature of 12 to 14°C. It can be preserved for 5 years or longer, allowing you to enjoy its exquisite flavors at your leisure. Fermentation occurs in barrels, enhancing its character.
