Verkostungsnotizen
Knackiger frischer Weißwein. Brillante grün-gelbe Farbe mit sehr feinen Tränen. Himmlisch frische mineralische Nase mit grünen Früchten und frischen Blüten und Kräutern. Verspielte Textur, verführerisch elegant mit köstlicher Frische im Nachhall, federleicht. Perfekter Aperitif und zu grünem Gemüse, Salaten, rohen Meeresfrüchten und Frischkäse mit Weißschimmel. Serviertemperatur: 10°C.
Wine Story
The Mathiers came to Salgesch in 1387. Originally from Marseille, they travelled to Switzerland via Grenoble. The reason for this was poverty and the opportunity to earn money abroad as mercenaries. The Mathiers were recruited for military service in Valais and decided not to return to their homeland once their duty was done, but to settle in Salgesch. They soon discovered that the area was ideal for winegrowing. And they realised that a good glass of wine was far more conducive to life than warfare.
Albert Mathier - as the name suggests, the founder of Albert Mathier & Söhne AG - was born in 1891, the second of nine children. He married Monika in 1918. This marriage produced five children. When the global economy hit rock bottom, the family tried to defy the recession by ploughing up fields and meadows and planting vines. With their wine press house, they laid the foundations for their own wine history and that of the red wine metropolis of Salgesch.
