Humagne Rouge

An alpine red variety that is a specialty in Valais, this vine is no relation to the similarly named Humagne blanche.

Humagne Rouge is a hardy, late ripening grape whose planted surface has increased largely during the last 20 years. It produces fine wine, low in tannin with a slightly wild character that is ideal with game dishes.
