The Escargot Rouge at the Crissier Town Hall
Launched in September 2021, the Escargot Rouge was born from the desire to promote the red wines of the Canton of Vaud in Switzerland by creating a brand that meets the expectations of consumers. On the one hand, this brand highlights the know-how and quality of Vaud wines. On the other hand, it demonstrates that the canton of Vaud, known mainly for its white wines, also produces excellent reds. The Escargot Rouge is now available in two ranges: “Original”, round and fruity, and “Sélection”, powerful and aged in barrels. As a guarantee of quality, the wine must be certified by experts in the vat and then in the bottle before it can be marketed.

Women passionate about wine in Mendoza!
That women have been gaining space in viticulture is not new. Both in the production of grapes and elaboration of wines, women are gaining spaces in a territory historically occupied by a male majority. In this context -and in line with the objectives of the Strategic Wine Plan 2030 of the Argentine Wine Corporation (COVIAR)- the project ‘Women in the Vineyard’ was born. It is run by the Small Producers unit in collaboration with the National Institute of Agricultural Technology (INTA). This initiative promotes the horizontal integration of producers with a gender perspective.
