HENRI BADOUX
Switzerland
Founded in 1908, based in Aigle (Eagle) this traditional winery with an estate of more than 50 hectares has been developing over the years what is nowadays the most famous Swiss wine at home and abroad, "Aigle les Murailles"!
“Murailles” meaning “fortified walls”, refers to the steepy vineyards supported by kilometers of stone walls, some of them 8 meters high. In harvest times an army of pickers is necessary plus a helicopter to bring the grapes down to the winery. The lizard displayed on the label being a typical natural local resident! About the wine: A silky texture encloses the richness of the fruit, dense and flattering on the palate. Remarkable for its harmony, roundness and intensity, it combines grace, elegance and softness.
