    Les Dames de Hautecour

    Les Dames de Hautecour

    Mont-sur-Rolle

    The Hautecour estate has been owned by women since 1649. Over time, the vines were passed down to their children Louise, Julie-Pauline, Adèle, Blanche, Ernestine, Théodora… Following the precedent set by her forebears, the current estate owner Coraline de Wurstemberger manages the estate now known as Les Dames de Hautecour. She greets guests and visitors with simplicity, hospitality and humour. Her daughter Camille also lives on the estate. Winemaker Quentin and oenologist Claude make a strong team responsible for the work of the estate, putting their talents to work on a daily basis to produce delicate wines. Coraline is a founding member of the association "Les Artisanes de la Vigne et du Vin" and the women winemakers fair "DiVINes !". Théodora de Salis was the grand dame of Hautecour. Known as Dora, she acquired the estate’s residence, a former communal bakery. She passed her love of the vines on to her granddaughter Coraline, to whom she represents a constant source of inspiration.

    Cave de la Côte - Nyon

    Cave de la Côte - Nyon

    Nyon

    Vines have been cultivated here for thousands of years, in this area of unspoiled scenery and villages, where this long history and the presence of Benedictine monks are still evident, between Lake Geneva and the Jura Mountains. To the north and west the Jura Mountains provide protection from the wind; to the south, Lake Geneva reflects the light and regulates heat, and between the two are the mountain waters that run towards the lake. The biggest wine-growing region in the canton of Vaud lies between the mountains and the lake. The La Côte appellation d’origine controlée (AOC) covers 2,000 hectares between Geneva and Lausanne, marked out by water courses and low walls, dotted with chateaux and manor houses. Cave de la Côte was established in the heart of this terroir and AOC, and has adopted its name and values – tradition and reinvention, attachment to the land and its skills, pride in its history and craftsmen and the audacity to break the rules – sometimes.
