Native grape variety from Valais (Switzerland), Amigne was mentioned towards the end of the 17th century between Sierre and Sion, before settling in Vétroz which became its favorite land (70% of the surfaces of Amigne to the world). Although having Savagnin Blanc (Heida or Païen in Valais) and Gouais Blanc as possible grandparents, Amigne is orphaned. Its supposed Roman origin is not based on any serious element. Sensitive to coulure and millerandage, this chameleon grape can produce dry, mellow or sweet (withered) wines, the sugar level of which is indicated to Vétroz by a macaroon illustrating 1-2-3 bees.
Dà un vino dal profumo fine, corposo, ricco e potente, leggermente tannico, molto spesso di buona acidità, adatto all'invecchiamento. In Svizzera viene vinificato secco, leggermente dolce o sciropposo. Amigne tollera abbastanza bene l'invecchiamento in legno.
