Description

Dôle is Switzerland's primary red blend, similar to the famed Red Bourgogne of Burgandy. Like Red Bourgogne, Dôle typically consists of at least 51% Pinot Noir and Gamay, with Pinot Noir being the dominant grape. Dôle's seductiveness lies in its balance and solidity, fruity aromas, and beautifully melted tannins. And— has been a benchmark of excellence since 1886.

80% Pinot Noir, 20% Gamay

Tasting Notes:

The coloring is an exquisite dark ruby red. It has a great subtle fragrance of red, ripe fruits, strawberries, and raspberries, with matching light-medium-body and soft tannins.
