Noblesse oblige
Proudly standing above Lake Geneva, Château de Chardonne did not suffer as much from the terrible spring frost that year as many other vineyards and regions in Europe! This Premier Grand Cru, the pride of the Canton of Vaud, shows itself intense, with roasted notes as well as accents of yellow peach, baked apple and honey. On the palate, it is fresher, younger than the nose suggested, thanks to a beautiful energy, great freshness and the typical refinement of the estate!

Chardonne Castle

Château de Chardonne comprises 1.7 ha of vines, acquired by Emile Obrist in 1933. This terraced vineyard is ideally located facing Lake Geneva. It is planted exclusively with Chasselas and its recognized quality has elevated it to the rank of Premier Grand Cru since the 2011 vintage. It is surrounded by the attentive care of distinguished winegrowers-laborers, crowned during several successive Winegrowers' Festivals.
