With views of the Matterhorn, a cheese-friendly white grape like Gutedel (aka Chasselas/Fendant) is expected, but Switzerland's top three grapes include Pinot Noir and Gamay. In fact, Dôle is the Swiss version of Burgundy's Passetoutgrain. So, from Cave Jean Rene Germanier in the Valais region (less than 200 miles from Beaujolais and Macon) comes this steel-fermented, all-natural, low-sulfur Grand Cru blend of 60% Gamay & 40% Pinot Noir, which shows impressive freshness, depth, and character unrivaled by most Swiss reds. Expect lots of red fruit, spice, earthy & floral notes. Pair with cured meats, cheeses, chicken, pork, and veal.
