Swiss vineyard on the western shore of the lake, 606 ha in the Three Lakes region. Signature Pinot Noir (55% of the vineyard, the local prince): fine, fresh reds with notes of cherry, raspberry, undergrowth and sweet spices, silky tannins. Specialty invented here: Œil-de-Perdrix, a delicate Pinot Noir rosé with salmon hues. Lively, mineral Chasselas (citrus, flint) in white, including the identity-marking Non-Filtré primeur.
Jurassic limestone soils, cool climate.
Light, fruity reds with a clear ruby robe, smooth tannins and a supple palate of simple red fruits (raspberry, strawberry, cherry), gentle spices and floral notes. A thirst-quenching profile to drink young. Once grown in the South-West, now nearly extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections for its genetic value. A rare French grape, witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the South-West.
