Structured and elegant age-worthy reds with a sustained ruby robe, fine tannins and an ample palate with fresh acidity, signature aromas of red fruits (cherry, raspberry), spices, garrigue and floral notes (violet). Distinctive alpine profile. Considered extinct until its recent rediscovery, grown by a handful of passionate winemakers in Lavaux for niche cuvées. Rare Swiss black grape, native to Lavaux in the canton of Vaud.
