Garanoir

**Garanoir** is a red grape created in Switzerland, a crossing of Gamay and Reichensteiner bred at the Changins research station and a sibling of the better-known Gamaret. **In the glass** — deeply coloured with juicy dark-berry fruit, a supple, rounded texture and notably soft, low tannin, making for an approachable, fruit-forward red. **Where it grows** — grown chiefly in French-speaking Switzerland, where it is often blended with Gamaret or Pinot Noir to add colour and easy drinkability. **At the table** — a friendly partner for charcuterie, roast meats and cheese. **Cellaring** — designed for early, easy drinking rather than long ageing.
