The grapes come from the Sion area; the available documentation does not specify the soils. The wine is traditionally made and matured for twelve months in larch casks from Nendaz. The nose shows juicy strawberry, fresh sour cherry, candied violet and sweet spices. On the palate, it is fine, juicy and slightly salty, with lively acidity, a lean to medium body and fine, precise tannins. Its distinctive feature is its maturation in larch wood.
