Wonderful experience here with Elizabeth. She was attentive and very helpful in introducing the huge variety of wines here. Easy ride on the train from Lausanne with great variety of wines produced in the region.
I've heard that Swiss wine is great but not exported, and we've always wanted to try it. With high expectations, we had a disappointing experience. We decided to go on the 21st of this month(Nov) after seeing this winery on ChatGPT recommended it. That day, we were supposed to have a happy wine tasting with my dad, and each of us bought an Expert package, which included three white wines and two red wines. In the end, after tasting, we each picked our favourite four wines, and a total of 16 bottles (plus a few that I picked myself) were ready to take home. However, problems kept arising. After checking out, I thought all the wine had been packed, but my father noticed one bottle missing when he checked the receipt. He asked me to check carefully, so I counted again and indeed one bottle was missing. I then reported this to the service staff – a middle-aged woman with a gloomy face. She came over slowly, checked the receipt, looked at me again, counted the bottles again, then whispered something to her colleague before telling me that there was indeed one bottle missing and refunding it to me. However, she actually overcharged me by one bottle (making it 17 bottles)! What's even more outrageous is that she didn't even say sorry. After that, I re-counted the number of bottles and made sure that there was no wine inside by carrying each one of them before leaving. And for the tax refund, they only gave me a receipt. I asked them twice if they were sure that I could get a tax refund just with this receipt and no tax refund form. They said that I could just take this receipt to customs and get it stamped and then take it to global exchange to get a refund. It was also ridiculous. When I got to the airport, customs told me that this was just a receipt and not an official tax refund sheet. Later, after returning to the UK, we opened the wine box and discovered that the two types of white wine I had specifically told her about – three bottles of each type – had been replaced with an exact match of six bottles of each! I really have nothing to say in the face of such a situation. I would like to remind everyone that if you are planning to visit a winery while travelling in Switzerland, it is best to avoid this winery. If you must go, it is best to carefully supervise their packing process throughout, carefully count the quantity, and check whether each type of wine is the variety you requested, so as not to repeat our mistakes.
We really enjoyed tasting and shopping here. The staff is very friendly, knowledgeable, and easy going. They do an excellent job at packing the wine, helpful for traveling.
This was one of the very few wineries that you can come to without making a prior reservation like so many in the region. Victoria was our wine connoisseur and she explained the tastings, regions, and tailored them to our preferences. Like others have said, it's way cheaper to buy a bottle and take it off site to enjoy after tasting. But this is totally worth the visit and walk through the hillside vineyards!
Ivonne is wonderful! Great tasting and very interesting movie about wine making in the region.
Nice place to stop, enjoy the views of the vineyards and go down to the lake. Big choice of local wines.
Very pleasant wine tasting with cheese and informative servers. Best spot on the wine trail.
Vast choices in wine tasting. A must if you are in the area.

The staff are sweet and even waited a few minutes as we ran late. Beautiful view of the vineyards, lake and the mountains from the tourist train. The wine tasting was scheduled in one of the vineyards midway. You can buy the wine from the shop after tasting if you like it. It was a fun way to spend time. If you're in the area, you should definitely see the Lavaux vineyards.
Lavaux express goes from Lutry on Mondays and Wednesdays and from Cully on Tuesdays and Thursdays during the week. It is an efficient way to see the vineyards, but not most scenic, it is best on foot or on bike. The little train on wheels stops only in one spot for us to take pix and it is really loud and bumpy. They need to think about electric engines to reduce the noise. The scenic views are not that enjoyable under the loud engines. The view is great but too fast zoomed by. One can hardly take any good pic from the running wagon.
Absolutely impressive drive through the vineyards with stunning view. Only negative point: Zero information, no commentary, not even a leaflet….nothing!
A beautiful journey, winding through the rural cobbled streets and weaving through the vineyards until you reach a stunning viewing platform with a view over the Lavaux. Not to mention, the wine is great! Tourists love this but that shouldn't put you off. Bring your camera and expect to have a great time.
An exciting and beautiful ride through the Lavaux wine Region - the kids loved it. Our ride stopped for one hour in Cully - just enough time to shop and snack at the local market.
We did the Cully-market trip. The trip itself is very nice, the Lavaux région in spring, summer and early fall enjoys a rare beauty. The ride is safe and the benches relatively comfortable, fine for a 30 minute sitting. The Cully Sunday market was a bit disappointing (half a dozen stalls), but the village of Cully itself is nice. You only have 45 minutes to visit until the 'train' heads back.
Fun, open sided train. Route has beautiful views of the vineyards and Lake Geneva. Ten minute wine tasting available at the mid way point.
Everything perfect and what is great view!!! So I’m recommended if you want to buy wine! Because I wanna drink more!!!

Very nice wines and super awesome hostess! If you’re around the area, it’s a must to visit especially if you are fan of a good white wine. Highly recommend their award-winning Lutry Tradition and specialty Viognier.
We tried the basic wine tasting here (20 CHF per person). A person who served us the wine was friendly but i wish she could have explained the wine more in details. But, we liked the wine and also it has a beautiful view from the shop.
We enjoyed the classic wine tasting so immensely that we bought several bottles of the wines we tried! The 3G Cuvée is particularly good. Very fair prices and generous pours for excellent wine. Paula was great and very knowledgeable.
Great little winery to do a tasting at. Good sample size too!
I came right at opening and they attended to my needs so quick. I came as a walk-in on a Tuesday morning. A quick 5 min walk from the train station, the winery was amazing. For an affordable tasting and the views, this place is a no-brainer. I would come again. Great service! The building itself is on the smaller side so not easy for large groups. I would think this location is more for locals that want to have a nice sip.
If you've got the time. This is a nice and casual vineyard to do a tasting at. They have a very comprehensive selection, the Chardonnay and viognier were amazing. The service was also amazing.
Love this place, great wine, lovely experience, beautiful view and so calm and welcoming.
Lovely place. We took a chance and stopped by with no reservation but the host was incredibly gracious and organized a table for us on the sunny terrace. We brought home two bottles are looking forward to visiting their partner restaurant when we’re back in NYC.

Just went here for the first time and will definitely be back! The service was very nice and the views from the terrace are spectacular! The view is unobstructed over the surrounding area and lake, and make for an excellent spot to watch the sun go down while sipping on wine. Highly recommend adding this to your Lavaux visit!
Stunning view, excellent wines and a friendly host all provided for a wonderful tasting. Felix provided great stories and interesting history of this local winery.
We booked in as a group of 16 and it was absolutely perfect. The views are stunning, the wines are fantastic and the staff are amazing! An absolute must if in Lausanne!!
I made a reservation for a wine tasting and tour beforehand via email, and had an absolutely wonderful time with exceptional hospitality, lovely views of the surrounding region, and amazing wines in front of the very vines they were made from! I went for the 5 wines tasting course, which included two whites (le chasselas and la légend), a rosé, and two reds (le gama nera and le mersyca), each delivered with passionate, detailed explanation. The tasting was following by a tour of the premises, including the ageing barrels. Bought a few bottles home at the end of the tour. Overall, a fantastic experience in Lutry and highly recommended for anyone interested in Swiss wines! Small tip: the walk from Lutry Station is long and steep, but it is very easy to get an Uber from both the station and the vineyard. Pricing is dynamic, but I paid CHF 13 for each trip.
I came on a Tuesday afternoon as a solo walk-in and was given a great experience. The views are top notch. Although there was only one staff member working at the time (unfortunately I don’t recall his name) he attended to me as soon as he could and was exceptional. I ended up going for the 4 top wine tasting and went home with the 2019 red wine. I would definitely come again. The winery is a 20 min walk from the station but there is a viewing platform with shade half way up. Take your time and enjoy the views! You can also stop by CO-OP before making the unpopulated trek.
We have spent a very pleasant afternoon at this wonderful place. Very friendly staff, speak English. Together with wine we had very nice starters ☺️ we called in advance to book a tour and tasting. Prices are very good too! Highly recommend! Thank you for wonderful experience!
Very informative tour and BEAUTIFUL location! The wines we tried were delicious and we were able to take one bottle home to the states. Would 100% visit again if we are in the area! We did have to walk up from the train station which I would not recommend unless you are in decent shape and the weather allows. The hills are steep but the view is breathtaking. About 20 minutes uphill from the train station (Vevey).
Chasselars is dry, refreshing and so enjoyable after a long walk from Lausanne. Enjoyed magnificent view and knowledgible sommelier who helped me to understand better about local wine. 20CHF for white, rose, and red. I only chose simple three because I was going to visit other vine yard too but mostly closed or lack of hospitality or knowledge. So do not waste your time on other winery and stick to this one.

A forever favourite. The new reclined benches are a welcome addition but you have to get there pretty early to grab one. Each seats two adults comfortably. The bar and restaurant counter is incredibly efficient and the food is perfect, but there is always a rather unbecoming game of musical chairs to sit down. I’m going to bring my own camping table in future.
Beautiful old town on the water. Lots of bars and restaurants in the quay. Nice beach for a swim. I would say dogs tolerated on leads rather than dog friendly
Very nice lakeside beach, including open air grill restaurant. Large grass area, perfect for lying down and for picnics. Gets a bit too crowded on weekends and over the last years it’s not maintained as clean as before
Very nice "beach" near the lake. A bit crowded but I went around 4pm when many people were already starting to leave. Clean area, accessible, nice views.
The beach would be great, but the commune decided to over regulate and place security guards there that like to over-interpret the rules. No tents allowed, sure, but a sun cover for an infant? "It's a tent take it down" and threaten to fine us. No dogs allowed ON the beach, sure, but "you are not allowed to stop when walking on the path next to the beach with your dog" then follow us around and threaten to fine us for not moving along? Sorry dear commune, but you can be a nice beach without establishing a military regime.
Lovely beach. Quite crowded though.
Excellent nice beach in a beautiful setting. Awesome restaurant on site.
It really looks like the beach with the sea. But in this time it's still really cold with strong wind which causes strong wave but it's the thing making this place more special. There are comfortable chairs on the shore and a public toilet which is so good. Definetely great for picnic or enjoy some food and chill.

Amazing music infused wine from the Lavaux vineyard terraces. Rick Steves has been here several times and loves it. The grapes used produce amazing wines such as a Chardonnay blend, Pinot noir, and the regional favorite, Chasselas. When I say music infused, they literally play music to the grapes every day for a few hours and then when the wine are in the vats, they play music inside the vats as well. Something totally different. Also, the wine is amazing. We took the train from Lausanne to Grandvaux and we walked about 45 minutes through the terraced landscape down to the Vineyard. It was beautiful. We saw the cute little shelters that they provide where you can have fondue and overlook Lake Geneva, while sipping some of their amazing wines.
We have visited domaine Vitis Musicalis a few times and have eaten a fondue in the tonneau a couple of times. Always a wonderful time. The view is incredible. The fondue in a barrel is an incredible experience and the domaine does an excellent job preparing everything so that it is easy for you to make it. It’s really one of my favorite things to do in Lausanne.
Awesome fondue, wine and views
Domaine Alain Chollet is a beautiful estate making craft wine with a stunning view of Lake Geneve and the French Alps. Mr. Chollet is a true craftsman when it comes to wine, from organic agriculture to vintage presses to playing saxophone for the fermenting wine, he is dedicated to creating the best wines while preserving his land. Mr. Chollet was incredibly generous with his time, experience, and, most importantly, wine. He is incredibly friendly and welcoming- he even drove us back to Lusanne! The visit was well-worth the trip. A truly unforgettable experience.
Incredible experience, people, wine.. everything. Absolutely loved this place. So welcoming and the view was amazing. Wines were very nice aussi!
A must-see in Lausanne: breathtaking view on the Leman Lake, with the opportunity to drink a good glass of wine while relaxing immersed in the nature.

Excellent place to sit n enjoy lake, mountain with kids. It has a small park for kids to play. it is pretty romantic with views of vineyards.
Cool arrangement of neolithic stones found while building the car park. The one which still has markings on it is located in the museum in Lausanne.
Nice but over evaluated
(Translated by Google) Unfortunately located right next to parking spaces or in a parking garage and therefore not really 'picturesque'. But the town of Lutry on Lake Geneva is really pretty and a good starting point for hikes in Lavaux. (Original) Leider direkt neben Parkplätzen bzw auf einem Parkhaus angeordnet und deshalb nicht wirklich ‚malerisch‘. Aber der Ort Lutry am Genfersee ist echt hübsch und ein guter Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen im Lavaux.
(Translated by Google) Aside from the grandiose view of Lake Geneva while going down Lutry, the alignments no longer correspond to the original. The megaliths were repositioned on the roof of a public car park, that is to say taken out of the ground, sacrilege! (Original) Mis à part la vue grandiose sur le lac Léman en descendant Lutry, les alignements ne correspondent plus à l'original. Les mégalithes ont été repositionnés sur le toit d'un parking public, c'est-à-dire sortis du sol, sacrilège !
(Translated by Google) Great place to relax and enjoy local life. I visited it in September 2017, taking the train ride from Lausanne to Vevey. Beautiful little town. (Original) otimo lugar para relaxar e apreciar a vida local. Conheci em set/2017, fazendo o passeio de trem de Lausanne a Vevey. Linda cidadezinha.

Organised a birthday party here for a dozen 11-12 year olds. There was another team of 6 kids there too. The people there were really nice and they organised everything brilliantly. The kids had a wonderful time and the cake afterwards was great. Think it's around 45 francs per kid per hour and I certainly felt we got a good deal. 100 bullets per thirty minutes, drinks at half time, lots of room to run around. Picked up from Croisettes and could have been dropped off too. Would highly recommend.
A must! Went there for a team building we ended up destroyed with a big smile on our face. Really enjoyed it. I recommend!
If you like paintball and strategy this is the place to go as you need to evolve with your team with a strategy to deploy to find all beacons in a very big outdoor map.
They do have a huge area for playing Paintball games and everything about guns, clothing are good👍 worth the visit.
One of the best pint all places in the area. Good service and amazing equipment. Safe for all
Great place! Awesome staff. Super fun!
Just went there to try out the new location of Swiss Laser Squad : Amazing, would highly recommend it !
Great for a music festival, haven't had a chance to paintball here but I'm definitely going to now
