qotd: All I really know about is some of their wines, and the main reason for me goin there would be to see the wineries. The history would be nice too
Wow just had a bottle of Chateau D'Auvernier Neuchatel yesterday. LOVE that you threw the spotlight on Switzerland wines, some killer quality there, wines that aren't explored nearly as much as they should be, but the prices are high.

One thing, Chasselas is not ONLY in Switzerland, it's made as a varietal in Alsace, the one made by Domaine Schoffitt is particularly good. Also you can find it under the Pouilly-Sur-Loire appellation in Eastern Loire Valley France too.

  • Thanks for another great guest. Just the other day I was looking at an appellation map with France, Germany and Italy appallations labeled and I thought, why aren’t there any Switzerland ones? So this was a great coincidence. Thanks again.

    Great ep, GV! Not only did Sophia know her wine, but what a wonderful laugh! And man could she spit!!

    Seriously, though, she was clearly able to look you in the eye and be just as honest with you as you with her. I was impressed with how the banter was light hearted, yet also very serious. A wonderful balance. Nice job!

    qotd: Bringing la Suisee to our public eye, just like this visit and interview you just did. I’ve heard so many things about your country. Now, hmmm, how to finance a trip???
