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.

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).
