Domaine Monachon
Domaine Monachon sits in Lavaux, the steep terraced vineyards of Vaud that rise above Lake Geneva. The region's dramatic slopes and lakeside microclimate shape wines of mineral precision and aromatic intensity. The domaine focuses on Chasselas, the white grape that defines this corner of Switzerland. Les Plantaz Grand Cru and Les Côtes-Dessus Grand Cru showcase the variety's range—from bright, crystalline acidity to layered complexity. Wine Advocate has rated these bottlings, recognizing their structure and finesse. In Lavaux, Chasselas transcends its reputation as a simple quaffer; in the right hands, it becomes a wine of genuine depth and terroir expression.
