# Lavaux Vinorama Activity company en Rivaz Fuente: https://www.geocalia.com/en/companies/lavaux-vinorama ## Who they are Lavaux Vinorama is the discovery centre for the wines of Lavaux, the terraced vineyard above Lake Geneva that UNESCO recognises as a cultural landscape. It is at Route du Lac 2 in Rivaz, beside the lake, on the site of an old mill that operated from the Middle Ages until 2001. The Fondation des Moulins de Rivaz bought the land in 2002 and decided its new use; after works from 2004 to 2010, designed by Fournier-Maccagnan Architectes, the Vinorama opened in 2010. It is staffed by a small team, with managers for service, wines and administration. ## What you can do The centre brings together nearly 300 wines from the winegrower-producers of Lavaux, selected by the growers themselves. You can choose a bottle from the list, try the selection of the week or take a guided tasting, in the room or on the terrace with views of the lake. The tastings come in four formats, all with bread and butter: Le Roi des cépages: three chasselas whites from different Lavaux estates, 17 Swiss francs per person. La Reine de Lavaux: two chasselas and a red, 20 francs. 3 saveurs, 3 nuances: three reds, from a light one to a barrel-aged one, 21 francs. Expérience ultime: six wines, with grand cru chasselas, white specialities and reds, including a plant robert, with cheeses, 45 francs. It also organises private walks with tasting through the vineyard, of one to two hours, from 235 francs, which are booked at least a week ahead, and a Wine Tour of about three hours for 75 francs per person, from May to September and with compulsory booking. For groups of 10 or more it prepares buffets, from 25 francs per person, and rents a seminar room for up to 20 people. ## Opening hours November and December 2026: Wednesday to Saturday from 10:30 to 19:30 and Sundays from 10:30 to 19:00; Monday and Tuesday, closed.
