Swiss Vineyard Wine Tasting Tour in Vaud

A wine tasting experience is a guided journey through different wines, allowing participants to explore the flavors, aromas, and characteristics of various vintages. It typically begins with an introduction to wine tasting techniques, such as observing the wine's color, swirling the glass to release aromas, and tasting to identify different notes and textures.

Chillon Castle in its current form is the result of several centuries of construction and redevelopment. The excavations carried out from the end of the 19th century, particularly those led by archaeologist Albert Naef (1862-1936), indicate that the site has been occupied since the Bronze Age. The rocky island on which the castle sits constituted both a form of natural protection and a strategic positioning to control passage from the north to the south of Europe. The castle took on the oval shape of the genuine island upon which it was built. It is approximately 100m long and 50m wide. It also took its name from the rock; the word ‘Chillon’ meant ‘rocky platform’ in an ancient language. The history of the castle is marked by three great periods: those of the Savoy family, the Bernese bailiffs and the Canton of Vaud.
