Switzerland is a country with a wealth of ancestral know-how passed down from generation to generation; discover our talented winemakers.
Swiss vineyards displays a unique variety in the world: an alpine landscape, a different climate depending on the region, and unique grape varieties.
Swiss vineyards cover 14,696 hectares, with more than 2,500 winemakers in six regions: Valais, Vaud, German-speaking Switzerland, Geneva, Ticino and the Three Lakes.
Switzerland's particular landscape and its vineyards inspire viticulture on a human scale, where the winemaker's skills remain the essential tool to bring grapes to maturity.
