Tasting profile
Structure: full-bodied, medium tannin, medium acidity, dry
The flagship red of Domaines Rouvinez in Sierre, a Valais blend built on the native Cornalin with Syrah and Humagne Rouge, aged around twelve months in barrique. Cornalin brings the dark cherry and wild-berry depth, Syrah adds violet and black pepper, and Humagne Rouge a rustic, earthy edge. The oak shows as toast and sweet spice in its youth. Full-bodied, with ripe tannins and Alpine freshness, it is one of the Valais's benchmark blends. Serve at 16–18°C with game, red meats or mature mountain cheeses.
