The Spiez vineyard is among the highest winegrowing areas north of the Alps. In 1927, Hans Barben brought together a group of wine enthusiasts who began cultivating Riesling-Sylvaner a year later. Shortly thereafter, Chasselas was planted, but the soil in Spiez proved unsuitable. Consequently, Riesling-Sylvaner was replanted. This dedicated group established an association focused on expanding the vineyard. In 1942, the association was transformed into a cooperative, laying the groundwork for the continued growth of winemaking in Spiez.
The cool Spiez vineyards lend this rosé, made from Pinot Noir grapes, its delicate fruit. A brief maceration gives it a soft salmon hue. With a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity, complemented by notes of wild berries and watermelon, it’s a refreshing and lively wine with remarkable length.
The Pinot Noir grapes are gently crushed and left on the skins overnight, followed by aging in stainless steel tanks.
