The wine region of Zurichsee
Wine region of German-speaking Switzerland around Lake Zurich, south-facing slopes on moraines, molasse and schists.

Räuschling native local specialty (lake vine): lively mineral white. Supple Müller-Thurgau, ample Chardonnay, aromatic Gewürztraminer.
The wine region of Zürich
Largest German-speaking wine canton of Switzerland, 620 ha around the lake. Star Pinot Noir (Blauburgunder): fine, fresh reds with notes of cherry, raspberry, undergrowth and sweet spices, silky tannins and a delicate style. Also light, floral Müller-Thurgau and precise Chardonnay. A unique speciality: Räuschling, a rare native white almost exclusive to the canton ("vine of the lake"), lively with citrus, white flowers and taut minerality.
The word of the wine: Green harvest or green harvesting
The practice of removing excess bunches of grapes from certain vines, usually in July, but sometimes later. This is often necessary, but not always a good thing, as the remaining grapes tend to gain weight.
