In Switzerland's wine-producing regions, which include Valais, Vaud, German-speaking Switzerland, Geneva, Ticino and the Three-Lakes region, over 2,500 winegrowers cultivate 14,569 hectares of vineyards.
The special relief of the Swiss vineyards leads to viticulture on a human scale, where the winemaker's hand is the most important tool in helping the grapes to ripen.
Switzerland offers numerous wine tourism destinations and activities in the heart of the Alps. A wide variety of landscapes and grape varieties ensure exciting experiences.

Valais Open Cellars
The canton of Valais is one of the largest wine regions in Switzerland. The dry and sunny climate as well as the strong and warm winds favour the ripening of late-ripening grape varieties such as the red wines Cornalin, Humagne Rouge or the white wine Amigne. You can taste these and other grape varieties such as Petite Arvine at the open wine cellars in Valais.
Visit the Valais winegrowers from 29 to 31 May 2025 from 11.00 am to 6.00 pm. More than 230 wine cellars look forward to introducing you to their emblematic grape varieties.
