Certified Valais brand wines
Although wine has been cultivated in Valais since the Iron Age, the expertise of its winemakers has evolved continuously to meet the quality standards that consumers expect.
As part of this pursuit of quality, the Valais brand guarantees an ambitious and forward-thinking approach based on eco-friendly winegrowing and winemaking methods that respect the land, its people and their heritage. This procedure also ensures that the entire “vine-to-bottle” process takes place in Valais.
