The Gamay is a grape of French origin, mainly grown in the Beaujolais region. \u00a0 It \u00a0comes from a cross between Pinot Noir and Gouais . In Switzerland, it is present in Geneva as well as Vaud and Valais. \u00a0A rather productive vine, it requires more work in the vineyard to control its growth. Clusters of Gamay are usually quite large but the berries are of medium size. It\u00a0produces warm and fruity wines. In Geneva, Gamay represents a total area of 368 ha or 27.5% of the all vineyard area.<\/p>\n

Tasting:<\/strong>
\nBouquet: \u00a0Red fruit is dominant with notes of blackcurrant and raspberry.
\nPalate: Well balanced and fresh in the mouth it recalls the aromas of red fruit experienced in the bouquet.<\/p>\n

Accompagnies:<\/strong>
\nGamay produced in our style of vinification lends itself well to summer aperatifs. \u00a0It is often drunk with charcuterie, or terrines and p\u00e2t\u00e9s.<\/p>\n

In general these are pale coloured wines, low in tannins \u00a0but very delicate. The culture of this variety is difficult because the vine is prone to many different diseases. It requires a lot of care by\u00a0the vigneron and perhaps a bit of sympathy from Mother Nature!<\/p>\n

Tasting:<\/strong>
\nBouquet: primary notes are cherry and blackberry.
\nPalate: Pinot gives more delicate wines than Gamay, with aromas of cherry. Tannins are present but not overpowering.<\/p>\n

Accompagnies:<\/strong>
\nWhite meat, lamb, duck or grilled red meats.<\/p>\n

The Gamaret is a relatively new grape in the world of viticulture. Created in 1970 \u00a0at the Federal Research Station\u00a0for Pully, as a cross between Gamay and Reichtensteiner (white grape of German origin). It was first used as a blending wine, but its virtues as a varietal in its own right were quickly recognised. It was in the early 1990s that in began to become well established in the Geneva region. Its “cousin” Garanoir is also from the same grape cross.<\/p>\n

Tasting:<\/strong>
\nBouquet: Red and black fruits such cherry and raspberry. Some spices, with slight woody notes and \u00a0caramel.
\nPalate: The wine is full bodied, the some tannins present but not overpowering. A hint of \u00a0wood is also present but does not mask the fruit flavours.<\/p>\n

Accompagnies:<\/strong>
\nGamaret is a gastronomic red wine which goes marvellously with red meats as well as game dishes.<\/p>\n

Merlot, although its origin is probably French, can be considered an international grape because it is also grown\u00a0in Italy, Switzerland and in many other regions throughout the world. Present in Geneva for several decades, it is particularly\u00a0well adapted to our climate. It gives tannic wines, but more muted than the Cabernets. Generally quite intensely coloured, it shows beautiful shades of red and purple. Merlot behaves well both to normal vinification in vats or to barrel aging. Our Merlot is aged in oak casks to fully develop its bouquet of complex wood aromas , but also to somewhat mellow the tannins.<\/p>\n

Tasting:<\/strong>
\nBouquet: Fresh with a mix of red and black fruits.
\nPalate: The taste is full bodied, with the tannins still very present, especially in young wine.<\/p>\n

Accompagnies:<\/strong>
\nLeg of lamb, grilled pork ribs, beef ribs, wild hare.<\/p>\n

The origin of the grape is uncertain but it could come from either Greece or Cyprus. Syrah is planted around the world, for instance, it is known as “Shiraz” in South Africa. Closer to home, the Syrah is emblematic of the Northern Rh\u00f4ne region. Recently planted in Switzerland, it can be found in the Valais and Geneva. The Geneva vineyards tend to emphsise the fruity aspect of Syrah wines, so they are a bit less rounded than the Cotes du Rhone wines. Our Syrah is aged in oak barrels for 10 to 12\u00a0months to develop its spicy aromas of toasted oak.<\/p>\n

Tasting:<\/strong>
\nBouquet: Typical peppery notes of Syrah are present but it is the fruit that dominates.
\nPalate: Albeit with a pronounced tannic note, this Syrah remains light and fresh.<\/p>\n

Accompagnies:<\/strong>
\nSpiced chicken, tapas, strong cheeses, and grilled lamb.<\/p>\n

The Cabernet Sauvignon is a French grape, best known in the Bordeaux region. Introduced a few years ago \u00a0in Switzerland, it gives very good results in warm years because it is a very late maturing grape in our climate. Because of this, we do not produce this wine every year. It provides strongly coloured tannic wines.<\/p>\n

Tasting:<\/strong>
\nBouquet: Red fruit, coffee, mint and spices.
\nPalate: Tannic. A note of woodland is still present in young wine, and there are hints of cassis.<\/p>\n

Accompagnies:<\/strong>
\nLamb shoulder, lamb, all types of game.<\/p>\n
