Humagne Rouge

Humagne Rouge is an ancient Valais grape with a wild, rustic character unlike any other Swiss wine. The wines are deeply colored, tannic, and earthy, with notes of game, leather, and wild berries. Traditionally known as "the wine of those in childbed" for its supposed iron-rich properties, it remains one of Valais's most characterful and historically rooted varieties. Small production and minimal export mean it is best discovered in situ.
