The wine region of St. Gallen
Wine canton of German-speaking Switzerland in the Rhine valley, ~200 ha at 70% reds. Pinot Noir (Blauburgunder) flagship red: fine and silky with signature notes of red cherry, raspberry, undergrowth, dried flowers and spice touch, fine tannins and elegant palate — fresh alpine expression. Supple Müller-Thurgau as white (Riesling x Madeleine Royale, created locally), taut Riesling, ample Chardonnay. Climate tempered by alpine foehn.
The word of the wine: Chaptalization
The addition of sugar at the time of fermentation of the must, an ancient practice, but theorized by Jean-Antoine Chaptal at the dawn of the 19th century. The sugar is transformed into alcohol and allows the natural degree of the wine to be raised in a weak or cold year, or - more questionably - when the winegrower has a harvest that is too large to obtain good maturity.
