This is the first year that Arvinis will be held in Montreux, the wine fair that traditionally heralds in the spring tastings season. At the most basic level it’s a showcase for some 5,000 wines from 4 continents and features a large number of Swiss wineries. Several workshops, from sushi and wine pairings as well as Swiss truffles and wine pairings to, of course, tastings of wines from Piedmont, the guest of honour this year – think beautiful Barberas and Barolos.

Several new features, including an interesting option to stay overnight in local hotels for a special hotel + wine fair rate. Details on public transport options and more – check out the new web site (English version will soon be available).
