Garanoir is a widespread grape variety in Switzerland. Garanoir was first named Gastar, then Granoir and finally Garanoir. The variety was obtained in Pully in 1970 at the Domaine de Caudoz by Mr. André Jaquinet (to whom we also owe the Diolinoir). Garanoir and Gamaret are the result of a cross between Gamay (black) and Reichensteiner (white).
The wine, very fruity, acquires an intense color through maceration. Red wine colored and full-bodied, fruity with a low acidity. (https://sui-wineimports.com/grape-varieties/?age-verified=74a22e31a4)
