Pioneer and welcoming: the Geneva vineyard

Lively city life, an old town, plenty of business and shopping opportunities, fine dining, cool bars… but Geneva is so much more than that. An “all-in-one” destination perfectly located in the heart of Europe, Geneva offers visitors a multitude of unforgettable experiences in a natural setting unparalleled in the world.

The incredible variety of attractions will surprise you! Because of its history, its international status and its cosmopolitan diversity, Geneva is a magnificent tourist destination.

Pioneers in terms of appellation, grape varieties or wine tourism, Geneva producers invite you to discover the third largest vineyard in Switzerland: Geneva.

They were the first to set up a controlled designation of origin. They were pioneers when it came to transforming the vineyard to meet new consumer demands. While the concept of wine tourism had not yet been thought out, they created Open Cellars from which all the other Swiss regions were inspired. They ? The Geneva winegrowers! In a countryside as little known as it is preserved a few kilometers from the banking district or the UN headquarters, plots of Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir thrive. Under the gaze of the Salève, the emblematic mountain of the region, a little more confidential specialties also thrive.

Here, open cellars rhyme with every Saturday. So, no hesitation! Come and discover the westernmost vineyard in Switzerland.
