Changins, Nyon, Switzerland (Le Matin/ats, Fre) – With a little less than two months to go, the Swiss grape harvest is looking very promising, reports Francois Murisier at the federal research station, the man who every year makes the official prognosis for the country’s vineyards.

For the most part, grapes are healthy and have had adequate rain, although Valais has had less than elsewhere.

Growers are now hoping to move through the rest of the season with no heat spells and relatively dry weather.
