ANHW Switzerland presents

A Visit and Wine-Tasting Event at Domaine de la Pierre Latine

Saturday, September 27th

9:00 AM - 3:00 PM

Location: Domaine de la Pierre Latine in Yvorne

The Alumni Network for Harvard Women Switzerland, in collaboration with the IMEDE Alumni Association, are pleased to invite you for a Visit and Wine-Tasting Event at the Domaine de la Pierre Latine in Yvorne on 27th September. 

As part of our series on Regenerative Wine-Making in Switzerland, this event takes place in the heart of the Lavaux Vineyard Terraces, and  Yvorne is also recognized as one of Switzerland's most beautiful villages, known for its harmonious blend of agriculture, vineyards, forests, and pastures. The discussions will center on the innovative "Yvorne Grandeur Nature" initiative founded in late 2019 with the goal of making Yvorne the first Swiss wine appellation fully committed to sustainable development by 2028. 

After the visit and discussion, we will taste the domaine's wines, and share a wood charcoal barbeque with meats and vegetarian options.

Please find the detailed information on our website.

The deadline for registration and payment is 15th September 2025.
