Dôle les Mazots AOC du Valais 2022

The Dôle is one of the most famous Valais wines. However, contrary to popular belief, this typical cru from the old country is not a single varietal, but a blend of Pinot Noir and Gamay. Pinot Noir lends the wine a subtle elegance and power while Gamay gives it freshness and fruity aromas. The result is a wonderfully balanced wine with fine, melted tannins.
