Vinification:
The Rüfiser site is probably one of the best in Malans. It lies on a cone of rubble in the middle of the other top Malans vineyards. Protected from the wind and cultivated on special soil, the vines retain their vitality and freshness even in prolonged drought. Gentle destemming in large wooden fermentation vats, cold ageing for more fruit and colour. Regular manual immersion of the mash during fermentation. Gentle pressing of the fermented mash. Maturation for at least 12 months in French oak barrels (barriques).
Tasting note:
Strong colour, impressive aromas, fine notes of dark berries (blackberry and blueberry) plus aromas from the barrique ageing: tobacco, fine smoke, some bacon, incredibly deep fruit aromas. On the palate, the powerful tannins are noticeable at first, powerful and full, but beautifully integrated, then again these filling flavours. An impressive length and depth are noticeable on the finish.
Winery von Salis:
Motivated by his enthusiasm for good wines, Andrea Davaz founded von Salis AG with two friends in 1994. For 30 years now, we have been passionate about wine and have sought out the best wines from all over the world for our customers. Over the years, we have been able to recruit over 25 highly trained employees who keep track of our constantly growing range of wines in Landquart and in the Maienfeld wine shop. We source the grapes for our own wines from over 60 winegrowers in Fläsch, Maienfeld, Jenins, Malans, Zizers and Trimmis.
The Graubünden grapes that make our von Salis wine something very special grow on more than 50 hectares there. We also cultivate around two hectares of our own vines in the Bündner Herrschaft region. As not only regionality but also nature is important to us, we pay close attention to our ecological responsibility in all processes. In addition, we not only want to produce the best wines, but also sustainably promote our unique Bündner Herrschaft region in all its diversity so that many more generations can enjoy good wines.
