Vin blanc frais et croquant. Brillante robe vert-jaune avec de très belles larmes. Divin nez tout en rafraîchissante minéralité avec du fruit vert et des fleurs et herbes fraîches.

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.
