This ancient illustration magnifies our hillsides, which were once almost exclusively devoted to winegrowing. Prized by lovers of fine views, they have been a masterpiece of the Riviera and Lavaux through the centuries, and a source of enthusiasm for tourists and artists alike, from Lord Byron to Freddie Mercury. To climb the paths and the châbles is to experience Ramuzian beauty on earth.

The nose is generous, open and ample. Its intensity is marked by fruity and floral notes, combined with the expression of the terroir which underlines the complexity of this bouquet. On the palate, the attack is marked by fruit, fine mineral notes and a fine balance.

In the 17th century, winegrowing in this clos was linked to the convent, whose building still stands today. This parcel is crossed by the Clos trail, which testifies to the viticultural imprint of this locality. A clos is defined by the harvest of a single parcel, with homogeneous terroir and exposure, distinguished from other estates by a clear demarcation. Powerful and mineral, this chasselas, with its solid roots, reveals great potential.

Château des Crêtes Chasselas

The vines that spread out on a gentle south-east-facing slope are well “capped”: not only by the winegrowers who tend them, but also by the red brick building, flanked by a turret, that overlooks them. A Château des Crêtes built in neo-Renaissance style by the “King of Parisian Gas”, Vincent Dubochet (1796-1877), the son of a Montreux peasant who returned to his native land to make his success a reality, right next to where Rousseau set his “Nouvelle Héloïse”. This noble Chasselas, elegant and floral with a hint of lime blossom, delights the palate.

The nose is full-bodied, with notes of red fruit. It reveals all the finesse of the Pinot Noir from which it is made. On the palate, the attack is sustained by freshness combined with a pleasant liveliness. A slightly exotic note gives this wine plenty of breed.

St-Vincent Gamay

The presence of a place of worship on this rocky promontory - with one of the few flat terraces in the region - dates back more than a thousand years, revealing its importance. When the first chapel was built in the 8th century AD, the church was probably surrounded by vines. It is still surrounded by vines 13 centuries later, and the temple bears the name of the patron saint of winegrowers, Saint-Vincent. The walls of the parish church, with their Gothic simplicity, breathe, as does this Gamay with its beautiful red color, harmonious and velvety on the palate.
