The Cully Winegrowers' Cellar
Nestled on the Place d'Armes, just a stone's throw from Lake Geneva, the Caveau des Vignerons de Cully is the must-visit spot for wine lovers in Lavaux. In the heart of a terraced vineyard listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site since 2007, our community cellar offers a new encounter with a local winemaker every week, over a glass of wine shared in a friendly atmosphere.
A winegrowers' association, a weekly rotation
The Caveau des Vignerons de Cully is, above all, a story of passionate men and women. Our association brings together independent winegrowers from Cully and the surrounding area who take turns running the cellar for a week. This rotation system allows every visitor to meet the winemaker who produced the wines being served, discuss their work, terroirs, and methods, and discover the diversity of Lavaux wines throughout the seasons.
An authentic way to experience the wine heritage of Lavaux—a UNESCO World Heritage site—directly through contact with those who shape it.
A traditional and welcoming cellar, established in 1986
Founded in 1986, the Caveau des Vignerons de Cully has been carrying on a tradition of hospitality and sharing for nearly forty years. Inside, the atmosphere is warm and friendly: stone, wood, and a traditional bar create an authentic setting, perfect for a quiet tasting in any season.
In gloomy weather, or to host groups outside of regular opening hours, our indoor room offers a comfortable and intimate setting for tastings, corporate drinks, or outings with friends.
When the weather is fine, head for the terrace on the Place d'Armes
On sunny days, head to the terrace! Located on Cully's Place d'Armes, just a few meters from the pier and overlooking Lake Geneva and the Lavaux vineyards, our terrace offers a unique, bucolic setting to enjoy a glass of wine outdoors.
Service is provided by the "La Capite" stand, which offers light snacks and refreshments to accompany your tasting. A moment suspended between the lake and the vines, to be enjoyed with friends, family, or groups.
Lavaux, a terraced vineyard listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site
Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2007, the Lavaux terraced vineyards stretch for nearly 30 kilometers along Lake Geneva. Shaped by human hands for nearly 900 years, this exceptional wine-growing landscape benefits from a unique microclimate, influenced by the lake and the stone walls that store heat. These special conditions give rise to wines that are delicately different yet similar, a faithful reflection of each terroir and each winemaker.
