Dear readers, this is the day when Vaud’s best wines are selected by Terravin wine tasters, and I’m one of them. We will be tasting wines all morning, followed by lunch at the Hotel de Ville restaurant in Crissier, selected this week by the red Michelin guides as one of Switzerland’s two top restaurants, with 19 points.

Details on Terravin’s winners – and lunch! – will follow later today.

The news will be reported with a little delay. Thank you for your understanding.

Ellen Wallace, editor
