Süßdruck

In Switzerland, the common term (also known as sweet imprint, fr. Pressé doux) for a light red pressed rosé wine. This is pressed before or after a short (a few hours) unfinished mash fermentation and the must is separated from the skins. The "sweet" refers only to the still sweet must after pressing, as the wine is usually dry. This corresponds approximately to the wines simultaneously pressed (Austria), Cretzer (South Tyrol), Vin gris (France), and White autumn (Germany). See also under wine preparation.
