Why is Swiss wine perfect for summer

- Jackson Avery

More and more restaurants are betting on regional products and renouncing long transport trips. The craze for regional products does not stop at the table: in terms of wine also, an increasing number of connoisseurs turn to Swiss wines.

These are not only durable and often developed in an artisanal way, but they also offer surprising diversity. A Chasselas from the canton of Vaud, a Merlot from Ticino or a small Arvine in Valais: with six wine regions and more than 250 grape varieties, Switzerland has something to satisfy all tastes.

When temperatures go up, the wine can be served a little fresher. Fresh and fruity white wines, with a moderate alcohol content and lively acidity, are ideal, like a Räuschling of Lake Zurich or a White Sauvignon in Geneva. The pink wines are also very trendy: what would you say with an eye of partridge from the Trois-Lacs region?
