The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Established in the Valais on just 3 hectares, Christophe Abbet is behind some of Switzerland’s most sought-after, masterfully crafted wines. His micro-estate, perched on steep terraces between Martigny and Fully, produces wines as stunning as the Alpine landscape surrounding them: bright, radiant, and timeless.

A true poet of wine, Christophe Abbet is celebrated for his sensitivity and adored by critics. He’s raised Swiss wine to an art form, with his cuvées winning over the most discerning wine lovers and collectors—who can’t get enough of them.
Wine Grown on granite terraces and aged without any oak, the 2020 Valais Humagne Red is a wine of remarkable purity, freshness, and finesse, with beautiful floral overtones. This delicate, lightweight Valais variety recalls the elegance of Burgundy Pinot Noir, with its silky, enveloping texture and notes of rose, raspberry, and gentle spice. A wine of rare subtlety and infusion-style grace, carried by its vibrant freshness. Rated 93/100 by the Selection Committee.
Vinification Located on granite terraces at an altitude of between 400 and 800 metres in the Canton of Valais. Pre-fermentation maceration and punching of the cap, no filtration. Matured in vats.
