Located in the heart of the wine village of Mont-sur-Rolle, the Domaine de Autecour celebrated its 2013
350 years of existence. The building, listed as a historical monument, is a witness to its rich history. The
vines, planted in high density, give rise to vintages aged in the estate's cellars.
Among them, the Chasselas Premier Grand Cru has become a true emblem of the Canton of Vaud.

A long Vaudois history
Did you know?
The estate takes its name from the old French "altacort", which means "upper farm". The manor house, listed as a historic monument, dates from 1663, built by a
Bernese nobleman.
The Chasselas from Domaine de Autecour has been elected the Council's wine of honor several times.
Vaud State! It is one of the rare wines raised to the rank of Premier Grand Cru, and this from the first vintage of this new category at the top of Vaud wines.
