The magic potion

Gamay Mephisto

AOC Mephisto
To enjoy this Gamay, you don’t need to make a pact with the devil, thankfully. While we can’t promise it will grant you eternal youth like the blood-red potion in the love opera Mephisto, we can assure you of pure drinking pleasure thanks to its violet aromas and intense fruitiness on the palate.

Wine history
chevron-down

Whether the potion Mephisto gave to young lovers in the famous love opera truly granted eternal youth or could have been our Gamay Mephisto remains uncertain. Legend has it that it brought not only the bright sound of Easter bells and joyful songs but also profound peace and endless youth. Our fruity delight from Salgesch can't promise all this – but unforgettable moments of pleasure are assured.

Tasting note

A vibrant nose with violet aromas, complemented by intense fruit on the palate and a silky tannin structure. The long, smooth finish completes the enjoyment of Mephisto. This Gamay is a balanced red wine, defined by its tannins, providing rich and harmonious drinking pleasure even at an early stage.

Vinification

The maturation takes place traditionally in stainless steel tanks. After an extended maceration, pressing occurs, and alcoholic fermentation is completed in stainless steel with the addition of yeast.
