Originally from Burgundy, the Pinot Noir grape found a new home in Valais in 1848, the founding year of the Swiss Confederation. At the turn of the millennium, our winery also took a new direction as part of a succession process, embodied in the name Nouveau Salquenen. The result is a fruity Pinot Noir, interpreted with modern and innovative flair.
The bouquet reveals aromas of ripe red fruits. On the palate, this Pinot Noir is harmoniously round, delighting with its fruity character and velvety-soft tannins. This ruby-red, balanced Pinot Noir offers a complex and harmonious drinking experience, even at an early stage.
To extract additional aromas from the fruit skins, the mash is gently warmed before the fermentation begins. Fermentation is then softly halted, giving the Pinot Noir "Nouveau Salquenen" its pleasantly sweet touch.
Grown on lime- and magnesium-rich soils in the vineyards surrounding Salgesch, Switzerland’s quintessential Pinot Noir village.
