CHÂTEAU MAISON BLANCHE
Switzerland
Yvorne is a historical meeting place on the Rhone valley route and the Simplon railway. A small village producing wines of great renown.
In the middle of the village stands the majestic 400 year old white castle surrounded by vines. In 1584, a dramatic rock fall changed the soil into a unique terroir of chalk and clay which gives its quintessence to one of the best Chasselas wines of Switzerland.
Coming from a dynasty of talented winemakers, Jean-Daniel Suardet has greatly contributed to the reputation of the estate, which he was in charge of from 1987 to 2019. His son, Martin Suardet, succeeded him in November 2019.
