The 3851 hectares of vineyards in Vaud are distributed among four different regions, each of which has its special topography and climate. The Vaudoise wines produced here – mainly Chasselas (almost 70%), Gamay (11%) and Pinot Noir (11%) – are defined by their individual region of origin. This explains the creation of the Canton’s 28 special labels (Appellations d’Origine Contrôlées).
