Nose

Incredible bouquet where the aromatic potential of Viognier is fully expressed with pure and intense apricot scents, highlighted by notes of clove and jasmine.

Palate

Richness, finesse and deliciousness are the distinctive signs of this wine, endowed with superb and very long aromatic persistence.

Wine-growing region

The Obrist house has owned this exceptional vineyard since 1896. On the heights of Vevey, the vines, leaning against the south-facing hillsides in the heart of the Chardonne production site, overlook Lake Geneva. The estate is subject to visits by the Confrérie des Vignerons de Vevey, which has repeatedly awarded winegrowers working this favorite land with gravelly and semi-limestone soils. Grape variety planted on a specially selected plot, reduced production in the vineyard.

Winemaking

Grape variety harvested at full maturity, then vinified in sandstone vats on its fine lees. This vinification method allows it to reveal its full aromatic potential and gives it roundness and length.

Cure d’Attalens

La Cure d'Attalens has a very long tradition of vine cultivation. Its eventful and rich history has been closely linked to that of Obrist for more than a century, since it was the first renowned wine estate acquired by the Vevey house in 1896. The terraced vines are pampered by winegrowers - let’s work – and winemaker-task! – distinguished at the Fête des Vignerons.
