The legend of the wine
A hunter from the Valais once met a mountain spirit. The spirit showed him a crack in a rock where the droplet of gold was. Every spring the hunter was allowed to put a small jug there, which was always full when he returned in autumn. This made the hunter very happy and he invested his land in gold. But his greed for gold grew more and more, so that already in summer he walked to the rock to see how much gold had already accumulated. But his disappointment was great when he found neither the rock nor the crack on that day. The hunter died long ago. However, it was heard from an old shepherdess that a few unknown visitors are said to have seen the droplet of gold again. Only those who are lucky will be able to enjoy this rare drop.
