The Canton of Vaud is increasingly becoming a wine-growing region whose wine meets the highest international standards. This landscape is waiting to be discovered and enjoyed.

Even the Romans loved the wine from the Bündner Herrschaft (Graubünden’s Rhine Valley). The sought-after, characteristic Pinot Noir, however, did not become endemic until the beginning of the 17th century.

Along the Roman trade route on Lake Zürich and in the Rhine Valley, Roman settlements sprung up. In the year 300 A.D. wine was grown on many of the south facing hillsides.

Situated right on the lake, this design hotel was furnished by Carlo Rampazzi with luxurious Mediterranean charm. Surrounded by a park with a private beach and jetty, 2010 there was the grand opening of its wellness centre "Eden Roc Spa". With 16, 15, and 14 Gault Millau points respectively, the 3 restaurants provide soaring culinary experiences. Ascona's picturesque piazza is just a few minutes away on foot.
