Light, lively whites with a tender palate and low acidity, with discreet aromas of fresh hazelnut, white flowers, light honey, apple and strongly terroir-driven mineral notes ("chameleon wine" of Swiss soils). Made as dry, often slightly sparkling whites. Absolute star of Vaud (Dézaley, Calamin, Lavaux Grand Cru) and Valais (Fendant) in Switzerland. Also in Pouilly-sur-Loire AOC and the German Jura.

The wine region of Chablais
Vaud sub-region between Villeneuve and Bex, terraces on glacial moraines and limestone screes, temperate alpine climate moderated by Lake Geneva. Chasselas: taut and mineral with notes of green apple, citrus, sweet almond, white flowers, light honey and flint, chiselled palate and saline finish — most powerful expression of the variety. Key crus: Aigle and Yvorne (1584 rockslide). Elegant Pinot Noir and supple Gamay.
The wine region of Vaud
World reference for Chasselas (~60% of the vineyard). Mineral, delicate whites with signature notes of green apple, citrus, white flowers, fresh almond and a saline touch, low acidity and a silky palate. Maximum expression in Lavaux (UNESCO 2007) on Lake Geneva terraces. Also La Côte, Chablais and the iconic Dézaley.
The word of the wine: Sabrer (champagne)
A cavalier and folkloric way of opening a bottle of champagne by breaking the neck with a sharp blow given with the top of the blade of a sabre.
