Throughout the tasting experience, the Humagne Blanche reveals delightful surprises.

A fragrant beginning of fine lees and hints of dried apricots and lime blossom. Initially generous and rich on the palate, this Humagne then becomes more incisive, with subtly integrated oak and a persistent, saline finish with a delicate creamy touch.

With good aging potential, it's also the perfect companion for cheeses from alpine pastures, creating a harmonious pairing, full of character.

Story

Until the middle of the 20th century, Humagne Blanc played a particularly important role at the bedside of women giving birth. Not only because it’s reputed to contain three times more iron than other grape varieties, but also because it’s the wine for special occasions.
