Gamay
AOC Valais
Originally from Burgundy, Gamay found its home in Beaujolais, where it has flourished for centuries. Certain similarities between the granite soils of its preferred region and those of the Valais explain the ease with which this grape variety has integrated into the Alpine vineyards.
A slow maceration lasting 19 days gently extracts the tannins, colour and structure of this red wine. The wine is then matured in vats for six to eight months, during which time the second fermentation takes place.
Dress : Brilliant ruby
Nose : Complex aromatic bouquet with woody, fig and cherry notes and hints of toast
Mouth : Combination of wild berries, blackcurrant and redcurrant, lovely freshness, supple tannins, long, satisfying finish.
