Wines made from Gamaret grapes of Rheintal
Discover the best wines made with Gamaret as a single variety or as a blend of Rheintal.
Structured, colourful reds with a dense purple robe and firm tannins, featuring aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, black cherry, spices and peppery notes. Fresh acidity, good performance in oak ageing. Made as a single-variety ageing wine and in many premium Swiss blends with Garanoir, Gamay and Pinot Noir. Star of modern reds from Vaud, Geneva and Valais. A Gamay × Reichensteiner cross created in 1970 at the Pully research station (Switzerland).
Swiss vineyard in the canton of St. Gallen in the Rhine valley between Bündner Herrschaft and Lake Constance (~220 ha), steep south-facing slopes favoured by the föhn wind that concentrates sugars. Signature Pinot Noir ("Blauburgunder", majority): elegant and silky with red cherry, raspberry, undergrowth and spiced hints, fine tannins and alpine freshness — eastern Swiss reputation. Signature Müller-Thurgau in white (aromatic, citrus, flowers, apple).
