Discover the grape variety: Garanoir
Supple and fruity reds with a purple colour and melted tannins, on aromas of cherry, raspberry, blackberry, sweet spices and floral notes. Round palate, fresh finish, more tender and approachable young than its sibling Gamaret. Vinified as a thirst-quenching single variety and in modern red blends with Gamaret, Gamay and Pinot Noir in Swiss Romandy (Vaud, Geneva, Valais). A cross of Gamay × Reichensteiner created in 1970 at the Pully station, same lineage as Gamaret.

The wine region of Bielersee
Swiss vineyard on steep slopes around Lake Biel, micro-climate tempered by the water and 70+ grape varieties. Signature Chasselas reigns in white: mineral and nervy with signature notes of white flowers, citrus, white apple, flint and a lakeside saline touch, taut, thirst-quenching palate — the Bernese soul as aperitif or with cheese. Fine, silky Pinot Noir (red cherry, undergrowth). Ample Pinot Gris (pear, honey), fresh Chardonnay, straight Pinot Blanc.
The wine region of Neuchâtel
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.
The word of the wine: Presses
The juice that results from pressing the grapes after fermentation. At the end of the maceration, the vats are emptied, the first juice obtained is called the free-run wine and the marc remaining at the bottom of the vat is then pressed to give the press wine. We say more quickly "the presses". Their quality varies according to the vintage and the maceration. A too vigorous extraction releases the tannins of pips and the wine of press can then prove to be very astringent. Often the winemaker raises it separately, deciding later whether or not to incorporate it totally or partially into the grand vin.
