Image Highly appreciated in the summer, the rosé wines enjoy a keen seasonal interest that is always renewed. Their freshness and lightness make them indispensable companions at barbecues in the garden or on the banks of the lake. The most interesting of these summer wines originates from the vineyards of Neuchâtel.

The Œil-de-Perdrix, a native of this wine-growing canton, gets its character and its finesse from the Pinot Noir vine, vinified in a particular way. In the same region, this burgundian vine, following vinification without fermentation in vats, also gives white wines that go by another name, Perdrix Blanche.
