Top-notch Swiss wines are no longer rare. Multiple blind tastings by the Blick jury impressively demonstrated that Swiss wine pearls can dance effortlessly on the international stage. For example, at large Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay tastings.

Even leading international critics such as Neal Martin (52) or Stephan Reinhardt (56) sing the praises of our wines. The downside of this success is also reflected in the prices paid to Swiss wineries in the market. We took a closer look at the top five rankings of the international price comparison service “Wine-Searcher”.

The masterful Chardonnay of Malans’ cult winemaker Thomas Studach costs an average of 136 francs per 0.75-litre bottle on the secondary market. The price of elegant Pinot Noir is also on average 127 francs, although the 2009 vintage is no longer sold for less than 200 francs.

The price of Merlot-based Castello Luigi Rosso currently averages 153 francs per 0.75 liter bottle, while Castello Luigi Bianco averages 156 francs. Sought-after Ticino rarities in the United States often cost over 200 francs. In the UK, a wooden box of three magnum bottles of the 2003 red vintage currently sells for over 1,600 francs.

With his Unique tasting at the “Matter of Taste” event in Zurich last year, Martin Donatsch of Malans GR impressively demonstrated that his wines are not only sensationally good, but also extremely storable. In fact, it should take first place with its Privée bottling, which sells for up to 1000 francs for a 0.75 liter bottle. Wine is not included in the “Seeking Wine” rankings because it is sold only at auctions and is not freely available.

Martha and Daniel Gantenbein reached the wine Olympus long ago. Its rare varieties were among the first Swiss wines to find buyers on various continents of the world. On average worldwide, your Pinot noir from Fläsch GR currently costs 247 francs per 0.75-litre bottle, while Chardonnay costs over 350 francs.

To insiders, it has long been the epitome of excellent Swiss Pinot noir, but the name of this remarkable Neuchâtel winery is little known to the public. Jacques Tatasciore bottles dream wines that emphasize terroir and creates enthusiasm all over the world. The most sought-after bottles on the market have already exceeded the 500 franc mark.
