Intensely coloured and structured reds with a deep purple robe, firm tannins and a dense mouthfeel, with aromas of black fruits (blackberry, blackcurrant, plum), cherry, spices and floral notes. A profile between Italian Ancellotta and French Gamay. Grown in Swiss Romandy (Vaud, Valais, Geneva) and Ticino for modern blends and identity cuvées. A Swiss hybrid created in 1981 at Pully by André Jaquinet (Ancellotta × Gamay), valued for its colour and resistance.

The word of the wine: Table wine

Everything that is not VQPRD (European designation for all appellation wines: quality wine produced in a specific region). In principle, the bottom of the ladder. But, as in Italy a decade ago (Vino da Tavola), this category is also a refuge for wines that are out of the ordinary, whose producers refuse to accept certain grape variety or vinification dictates.

Discover the grape variety: Gamaret

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).
