Cave de Moratel

Winery in Vaud, Lavaux

About the Winery

Located in the heart of the terraced Lavaux vineyards, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2007, Cave de Moratel is a small family-run estate that has been working in a traditional, artisanal way for three generations.

The entire estate is situated within the Epesses appellation area, where each stage of production — from the vineyard to the final sale — is carefully managed by the family, ensuring authenticity, quality, and respect for the region’s winemaking heritage.

About the Wines

At Cave de Moratel, the vineyards flourish on the steep, sun-drenched slopes of Lavaux, where the unique terroir gives life to exceptional wines. The estate cultivates white Chasselas and Viognier, as well as red Pinot Noir and Diolinoir, a distinctive Swiss grape variety, along with a refreshing Rosé.

All grapes are harvested by hand, then vinified, bottled, and sold directly at the winery, ensuring complete control over quality and preserving the authentic character of each wine.

Fabulous wines and engaging owners
Winter in the vineyards is a difficult time, but we love the terraces so much and want every family member that visits us to see them. I searched for wine tastings, and Cave de Moratel was available for a nice tasting session. The wines, three generations have owned the 20,000 hectares, were all very good. The owners were so wonderful, giving us history of the vineyards, the grapes, and sharing events in Cully with us. We are thrilled that we were able to book something - even though they had not had a booking since 2024 through the site! We look forward to returning to the vineyard in the summer when we hike the area.
It is intimidating to walk up to these winery doors without knowing if they offer access to the public, I wish more vineyards participated through Windering. I love Cave de Moratel's Chasselas and they had a very nice charcuterie snack plate that nicely complimented our tastings.
