This grape was one of the treasures of the sultans' tables. It was the crowning glory at sumptuous feasts offered by King Francis the First of France.

Chasselas has long fed history and legends. Scientists, historians and wine producers lift the veil of the origins of this grape variety, so emblematic of the vineyards of French-speaking Switzerland.

From seed to Grand Cru, from the infinitesimally tiny to geographically vast - on a world scale - this is the history of Chasselas as you've never seen or heard it.
