Traditional champagne method

The sparkling basics of champagne

The unique, typical champagne flavour is largely due to the time-consuming méthode champenoise. The bottle fermentation method is copied all over the world, for example in South Africa as "Cap Classique", and Swiss sparkling wines, especially the more expensive ones, are also produced using the traditional bottle fermentation method.

The minimum ageing period for entry-level champagnes in the lower price range is 9 months. Premium champagnes mature much longer on their lees, for example the minimum prescribed maturation period for vintage champagnes is 36 months - and often goes far beyond this: 5 to 7 years of maturation are not uncommon for vintage champagnes from top producers.

Fernand Cina SA

Hard-working and complementary are the adjectives used to describe the brothers Cina, Manfred and Damian. Both studied viticulture and oenology, but above all learned the trade. From a very young age with their parents Fernand & Rose-Marie, Saturdays were spent in the vineyard rather than on the football pitch with friends. Despite the hard work, Manfred and Damian saw the great development potential of their father's business early on and rightly envisioned a promising future.

The Cina brothers have been working in their business for more than 30 years, surrounded by a meticulous and enthusiastic team. Their motives? Always one step ahead, producing excellent wines, developing innovative grape varieties in Valais, being positive and, above all, close to the customer. The winery is known for its diverse range of specialties. They cultivate an exceptionally large number of grape varieties on 20 hectares of their own vineyards, which enables them to offer around 40 different wines.

In their work in the vineyard, they focus on natural and quality-oriented care of the vines. The work in the vines is the most important activity in the annual calendar and forms the basic building block for high-quality wine. From the vine to vinification and bottling, the two brothers cultivate the wine with great dedication. Wine production is far more than just a job for them, it is a passion and a pleasure for both of them to marvel at this phenomenon every year and to be a part of it.

Pinot Noir

«King of the red wines»

Pinot Noir is by far the most widespread variety in Valais. It originated in Burgundy and was introduced by the State Council in 1848. It was introduced in 1848 by the State Council, which wanted to give a new impetus to winegrowing in the Valais, which was undergoing a fundamental transformation at the time. It found its second home on the calcareous and magnesium-rich soils of the Valais.

The Pinot Noir, precocious and equally resistant to heat and cold, is popular in the Valais. It produces wines of very different expressions, which is favoured by the great diversity of terroirs in the Valais. It can be drunk young, but age gives it dignity, nobility and distinction.
