Kümin Wine Tour & Tasting - Zurich
ASMALLWORLD invites you to join Ambassador Daniella Simmig for an evening of Swiss wine and heritage at Gebrüder Kümin in Freienbach, the largest wine producer on Lake Zurich and one of Switzerland’s most respected family winemakers.
The historic estate opens its doors for a private experience through its winemaking facilities and expansive cellar spaces, offering guests an insight into the craftsmanship and traditions behind Kümin’s celebrated wines. The evening continues with a curated tasting of seven signature wines, thoughtfully paired with regional delicacies including local cheeses, cured meats, and artisanal bread.
Set within an atmosphere of authenticity and understated elegance, this gathering offers a refined introduction to the warmth, heritage, and convivial spirit of Swiss wine culture.
Now in its fourth generation, the Kümin family has been devoted to viticulture and wine sales in Freienbach, on the shores of Lake Zurich. Their vineyards span historic sites in the upper Lake Zurich region, producing a wide range of high-quality regional wines. Since 1902, the Kümin family has carefully cultivated these lands, building a legacy of excellence in local winemaking.
At their family-owned winery, a dedicated team of around 20 passionate employees works to craft wines with distinctive character, including varieties such as Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, and the regional specialty, Räuschling. In addition to their acclaimed wines, Kümin also produces premium spirits, including Etzel Kirsch cherry brandy and a selection of artisanal liqueurs.
The winery is more than just a production site; it is a lively community hub, hosting well-loved events such as the “Treberwurstessen” (Treber sausage feast) in January, which draws guests from beyond the region, and the “Schlemmerei in der Brennerei” (feast in the distillery). These festive gatherings have made it a favourite destination for both locals and international wine lovers.
