Switzerland

Switzerland, ever since the Roman period, has been producing wine on 15,000 hectares. It is predominantly consumed within the borders of the country itself.
The vineyards are situated on terraced, precipitous slopes along the river valleys of the Rhône and the Rhine or along the numerous lakes.
The prevailing grape varieties, which are processed to yield white and red wines in almost equal shares, are Chasselas and Müller-Thurgau as well as Pinot Noir, Gamay, and Merlot.
