Organic vines reach 21.5% of Swiss vineyard area, growth slows

Almost 3,000 hectares of Swiss vines were farmed organically in 2025, or 21.5% of the total vineyard area, so nearly one in five wine estates is certified. Growth has slowed since the strong 2017 to 2021 period, and retail sales of organic wine fell by 7% in 2025, as wine consumption declines.

The broker

Thirty years in the vineyard before brokerage.

Trained in business management at a bank, Jean-Luc Kursner ran the family estate in Féchy for thirty years; it was named winery of the year in 2021. That same year he took over the business of wine broker François Hoehn, followed in 2025 by the Spahni family's brokerage office in Sion.
