Originally from Austria, Saint Laurent or Sankt Laurent was named after the patronal day of August 10, when the grape variety was usually ripe. The DNA test has recently shown that it is a natural child of Pinot Noir and Savagnin. This medium maturity variety offers good resistance to winter frost, but it is subject to millerandage and coulure. In Switzerland, its presence is very limited. Its wines are aromatic, colorful, with silky tannins and aromas of bitter cherries.
