    A wine tasting room that has hundreds of vineyards from the Lavaux area. It's going to be challenging to find you favorite wine as they are all very good. It has a waterfall, which you can hike up to the top of the wine terrace and get a breath-taking view of the region overlooking Lake Geneva.

    It’s a nice place, on a busy road so cases will be zipping by, occasionally honking. Ordered two tasters. The "CHASSELAS" and "AROMATIC" after our second tasting I asked the server if she was going to bring out more bread since each of the tasting say (with bread , puff pastry sticks) and she said she just put it all on one plate. But I watched her bring out the same portion for a patron that ordered alone. Not a big deal, but felt a bit disingenuous. I also asked for the Wi-Fi password and she said it was private and was very rude about it, this turned me off to the whole experience. This region thrives off tourism so I just expected more hospitality. Of note, the pours are 0.5 dl and they are stingy about it, they tend to under pour rather the over pour. You’ll leave very sober.

    Calm, quiet and romantic for a day trip. One can take long walks midst of vineyards, taste wines, sit and enjoy the view of lakes, mountains and blue sky.

    Excellent tour even though a walk up was “sporty”. 40 minutes walk 250m up. Worth it for the views and a tasting of wine at the top. Also teasing of wines when back down!

    We were passing by this area early in the morning and although the tasting room was not yet open, we hiked through the vineyard trails and oh my goodness - the views from the top were breathtaking!! Highly recommend.

    Worth a visit if you have time. The terraced vineyards are unique. Do taste some wine in their restaurant

    Took a tour through the vineyards with a tasting. Our guide, Eve was very knowledgeable and fantastic. The hike can be a little steep, but the views make up for it. Recommend a late afternoon tour so you can enjoy the sunset with your tasting.

  • 5/5 Paul F. 9 months ago on Google
    So enjoyed walking through the terraces discussing the region, the wines, the history and culture with the wonderful Astrid / She was so so helpful & informative Merci Beaucoup 😊

  • 5/5 Hunter C. 9 months ago on Google
    A selection of more than 300 wines from the area! We did the tasting of 3 white Chasselas wines, and the staff provided a map with great information about each of the wines. We also ordered sausage and cheese, which were both delicious. A great stop in Lavaux if you want to experience a variety of wines from various locations.

  • 1/5 Belen A. 1 year ago on Google
    The wine selection is good, but too touristy. It is by the road, so too much traffic, pollution and noise. If you are in the inside, it's too dark.... Good views on the terrace, if it were not the road just by the table

    I stopped at the Vinorama for a while on my way back from some bird photo shooting, having suffered the usual traffic congestion going to and coming back trom Wallis on a Saturday with beautiful weather and perfect snow conditions in the alps. This is where you can taste wines from a large number of wine growers in the Lavaux region. I was particularly interested in a wine I did not know, the Plant Robert. a red that grows in just a small part of this beaturful area. I was very pleased with what I tasted and bought a bottle to continue the tasting once back home for dinner. Prices are on the high side if you compare what you pay if you buy directly from the vineyards. The staff is nice and knowledgeable.

    Great place for wine tasting with a beautiful view overlooking the vineyard, the cheese and cold cuts are delicious.

  • 4/5 Dan AI6XG K. 4 years ago on Google
    Vinorama is more of a wine shop than museum. I did take the tour which starts with a tasting of three chasselas wines with distinct different taste, very interesting. Next we hiked to Chexbres to a winery. The wines were not great but the views were outstanding. Be prepared for steep hills but worth it for the views. Being harvest many farmers were in the fields picking, very fun to see the harvest and pressing.

  • 3/5 Jeanine B. 1 year ago on Google
    The tables are right on the road so lots of cars going by. The tastings are a bit small and not so inexpensive for a Winery region. The bottles of wine inside are averaging more then chf 40$ each.

  • 4/5 Martin D. 1 year ago on Google
    The real secret of this place other than amazing selection of wines from the region is the nice hidden "beach" you can enjoy down the stairs from the parking :)

  • 5/5 Georgina S. 1 year ago on Google
    Really lovely experience tasting local wines along with a platter of meat and cheese. So relaxed and absolutely beautiful vineyards to wander around!

  • 3/5 Natalia W. 1 year ago on Google
    The service took forever and in general the server just seemed annoyed that we were there. Beautiful scenery though when you look up at the vineyards. But it's just off a highway so not very tranquil listening to cars drive by while trying to enjoy your wine.

  • 5/5 Christina S. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing view and the tour guide explained the history very well. Highly recommend

  • 5/5 S T. 1 year ago on Google
    Did the Balcon of Lavaux wine tour, the guide and staff is really kind and knowledgable. They are kind of a distributors for the wine makers. They don’t own the vineyard, but the collaborate with a wine maker. We get to see the wine maker cellar and process. Enjoyed ourselves!

  • 5/5 Antonio José Gambin G. 2 years ago on Google
    Gourmet experience with views and the chance to visit the surrounding vineyards..

  • 5/5 Pactli Alexis Cabanétos R. 2 years ago on Google
    Very nice place for wine tasting with a good selection of wines and a kind and helpful team.

  • 4/5 Siddharth R. 2 years ago on Google
    Wonderful landscape of vineyard overlooking the huge Geneva lake. People who taste wines can have better experience as there is a wine bar providing wine tasting packages. For people who don't drink alcohol, a walk through the vineyards overlooking the lake is worth the visit. There is also a small waterfall flowing through the vineyard which we can hike and go near it for a photo shoot .

  • 3/5 Law V. 4 years ago on Google
    Nice place and tour guide was good. However, service at the shop was average as staff all seem too busy to serve properly. Also, very little was said about the wines at the shop. They put on a French film without checking that viewers only understood English, even though they had English film. However, they did apologise and asked if we want to stay back to watch it again in English but we had other plans.

  • 5/5 Di Lanh H. 4 years ago on Google
    Great tasting bar. You can buy wines from hundreds of local Lavaux producers. The tasting menu changes regularly to feature all the different local winemakers throughout the year. The staff was very nice and we could try many wines. You should definitely give it a go if you're passing through!

  • 5/5 Márcio 2 years ago on Google
    Friendly service and excellent wine list. The views from the terrace are a plus.

  • 5/5 Gee M. 2 years ago on Google
    Outdoor seating is comfy but by the busy road. Wish there were more trees or sound breakers. Wines of this region more varied and richer than expected. Bonus: spicy saucisson pairs well with the richer wines

👍👍 My husband and I had the most amazing experience ever, thanks to Anna! This was hands down, the highlight of our 2 week trip in Switzerland. I was quite nervous biking through the hilly area of Rivaz, but Anna made me feel safe and confident! I couldn't have done it without her! We had a great time,...
