The Anselmets have been protagonists in the rediscovery and valorisation of forgotten indigenous grape varieties such as Petit Rouge, Cornalin, Fumin, Mayolet and Muscat. But they have also been courageous disseminators of International grape varieties such as Pinot Noir, Merlot, Chardonnay, Gamay and Pinot Grigio, which are cultivated and vinified according to an authentic Valdostan spirit.
Today, Anselmet cultivates around 10 hectares of vineyards; the production, totally manual in the vineyard as well as in the cellar, enhances the incredible variety and extraordinary personality of Valdostan wines, seeking to capture their changing and grandiose, elusive yet clearly territorial character.
