As the first vineyard estate acquired by the City of Lausanne, Clos des Abbayes covers 4.7 hectares in Dézaley. The estate has belonged to the City since 1536. We welcome you in an exceptional setting, right in the heart of the terraced vineyards. A blend of history, culture, winemaking, and the women and men who bring it to life creates wines of recognised quality.
Experience the grape harvest, the steep vineyards, the traditional vineyard snack and the aromas of winemaking alongside our team.
Ask your questions, take part in an extraordinary day and discover a truly exceptional place.
