Between intuition, high standards, and a passion born very early, Valentina Andrei has become one of the most inspiring producers in the Swiss wine landscape.

Valentina Andrei: a vocation born in childhood

“From my very first harvest at the age of 12, I knew I would work in the vineyard and make wine.”

This sentence sums up the passionate journey of Valentina Andrei. Originally from Romania, she seized the opportunity to settle in Switzerland, drawn to the slopes of the Valais vineyards. In 2012, she founded her own estate, already driven by a strong sense of quality and a deeply personal vision of respectful, thoughtful viticulture.

An artisanal and committed domaine in Valais

Valentina’s domaine covers 4 hectares spread across various parcels and hillside vineyards, all cultivated with dedication: “My wish is to revive old, forgotten Valais grape varieties, while prioritizing quality over quantity on a land I respect deeply.”

Thanks to this artisanal approach, each vine is cared for individually, each parcel has its own story, and the small scale of the estate ensures clarity, identity, and a true sense of place in every wine.

Wines that speak their terroir, with clarity

Valentina Andrei’s wines captivate with their freshness and precision: “These are finely chiseled wines with remarkable freshness that is sure to delight connoisseurs; the red wines are elegant, show beautiful crunchy fruit, and already display a lovely balance.”

From bright, vibrant whites to light and fruity reds, each bottle reflects the same philosophy: letting the Valais terroir shine without artifice, creating wines that are expressive, honest, and meant to be shared. Accessible yet uncompromising — this is what sets Valentina apart.
