Wine from Zurich

The Zurich wine region, with its picturesque vineyards lining the shores of Lake Zurich, boasts a unique terroir characterized by a temperate climate and diverse soil types, including clay, gravel, and limestone. This confluence fosters the growth of remarkable white varieties like Zürich's native Chasselas, producing wines with delicate floral notes and lively acidity. The reds, often from Pinot Noir, exhibit ripe berry flavors and subtle spice. Traditional techniques, such as spontaneous fermentation, enhance the region's authenticity, while its rich cultural heritage and proximity to exquisite culinary traditions elevate its wines to unparalleled heights.
