Lavaux Vineyard, a UNESCO World Heritage Site
UNESCO World Heritage Site
Lavaux is the largest contiguous vineyard region in Switzerland,
with a vineyard area of 800 hectares.
Its bold terraced slopes,
have become a protected UNESCO World Heritage Site.
This vineyard has 10,000 terraces,
scattered with various wine trails,
adorned with wine-growing villages,
with exceptionally rich and diverse architectural heritage.
Standing on the terrace of the terraces,
raise a glass and look far away,
the lake and mountains are full of sight,
it is the most beautiful autumn scenery in Switzerland!
In autumn,
when the grapes are ripe,
the rich aroma of grapes permeates the air.
In different vineyards,
tasting local wines,
walking along the winding grape trails along the hills,
it is really a pleasure!
You can taste in Lavaux
the grape variety of the region - Chasselas.
This is an excellent table grape,
and an ideal choice for winemaking.
The white wine produced,
delicate, rich, and strong mineral taste,
has a strong local terroir,
and it is perfect with a piece of mild cheese!
