This Premier Cru pairs superbly with hearty poultry dishes, braised veal or mushroom dishes. It is particularly lovely with roast quail with herbs, veal cheeks or a risotto with porcini mushrooms.
Domaine Les Hutins in Dardagny is now run by Émilienne Hutin Zumbach, supported by the experience of her father, Jean Hutin. The family is one of the defining names in Geneva’s wine-growing industry and has long championed high-quality terroir wines. Across some 19 hectares, they produce characterful wines that combine terroir, precision and a modern touch.
On the nose, dark berries, cassis, toasted notes and a hint of spice unfold. On the palate, the wine is dense, fresh and structured, with juicy fruit, delicate toasted aromas and a lively tension that lends the Gamay remarkable depth.
The wine is vinified entirely in barriques and then aged in wooden barrels. This gives the Gamay structure, spice and aromatic depth.
The grapes are grown in Dardagny in the Geneva Mandement, one of the region’s most important wine-growing communities. Limestone and clay soils, together with the comparatively warm microclimate, give the wine its ripeness, freshness and clear structure.
