On behalf of Fondation L’Homme et
le Vin, welcome to the Chamoson Swiss Wine site.
Who are we?
L’Homme et le Vin is a non-profit foundation
dedicated to developing the culture of wine in all its dimensions: technical,
scientific, historical, artistic and, naturally, epicurean enjoyment.
The Foundation’s main objectives include:
| • |
promoting the Swiss Wine Chamoson label
in order to build national and international recognition for the Chamoson
appellation; |
| • |
encouraging conservation of the Chamoson region; |
| • |
ensuring continued quality of life in Chamoson; |
| • |
protecting the region’s winegrowing zone by fostering
sustainable development; |
| • |
participating in the canton’s Grand Cru project. |
L’Homme et le Vin is actively involved with the region’s
Economy and Tourism Commission, specifically through a wine-related restaurant
and accommodation offering and the creation of hiking packages.
In an effort to educate young people about the value of drinking responsibly
and eating well, the Foundation has set up an association of wine lovers
called Les Amis de la Fondation l’Homme et le Vin. The purpose of
this association is to bring together people who share common interests
and to foster open and friendly discussion through a series of meetings
held each year, including La Fête de la Taille and La Saint André,
as well as wine-tasting events known as Vinissima.
Come discover the charms of Chamoson and learn about the impressive values
our association promotes. You
may even want to become a friend of the Foundation!
