🥇Golden Harvest 2025
Golden harvest for Salathé Vins: Triple success on the international stage!
This year, we have three reasons to celebrate: At the prestigious international «Concours International de Lyon», both our 2021 red wines were awarded a coveted gold medal. Our Divico Merlot 2021 and our Merlot Cabernet Franc 2021 convinced the jury completely – an outstanding honor for our wines, which distinguished themselves in strong international competition.
But that's not all: our Merlot Cabernet Franc 2021 also impressed at the «Grand Prix du Vin Suisse», where it secured yet another gold medal.
By the way: Last year, we also received numerous gold medals but haven't yet shared that news here. We will soon catch up and gradually expand this news page to honor all our previous successes. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who supports us and shares our passion for exceptional wines!

🥇First place!
A gold and silver medal for Salathé Vins at the Expovina Wine Trophy 2023.
We are proud to announce that our Cabernet Merlot 2018 has just been awarded a gold medal. And that's not all: It even received the highest rating of all Swiss red wines across all vintages!
Our Cabernet Merlot Syrah 2019 also received accolades, now proudly wearing a silver medal around its neck.
An analysis of the data revealed that a total of 777 red wines were submitted to the Expovina Wine Trophy in 2023. On the figure, you'll find all the red wines ranked by rating, with gold and silver medals appropriately highlighted. Swiss red wines are denoted with a plus (+) symbol, while non-Swiss red wines are indicated with a circle (o).
Out of the 400 non-Swiss red wines, only one - a 2015 Australian priced at CHF 135 - received a higher rating than our Cabernet Merlot. We are delighted that our first wine has been recognized among the best internationally, and the very best in Switzerland.
