Kursner

Vaud winemaker balancing Viognier, Chasselas, and Swiss Gamaret.

Kursner is a winery in Vaud, Switzerland's largest wine region, where alpine terroirs and continental influences shape distinctive white and red expressions. The house works with Viognier, the aromatic Rhône variety that finds particular expression in their eponymous bottling, rated 90 by Wine Advocate. Their Premier Grand Cru Au Brez, built from Chasselas—the traditional grape of Vaud—demonstrates the mineral precision and textural complexity the region is capable of. Gamaret, a native Swiss red varietal, appears in Valentino, a wine that reflects the winery's engagement with both international and indigenous varieties. Kursner's portfolio spans the aromatic whites and structured reds that define contemporary Vaud winemaking, anchored in the region's cool-climate potential and diverse soil composition.
