Pic Beau-Rivage Palace
This is a big, France leaning Burgundy and Bordeaux house, 1220 wines deep, built around the Côte de Beaune and the two banks of Bordeaux, with serious back vintage producers like Coche Dury, Leflaive, and Vincent Dauvissat anchoring the white Burgundy. What sets it apart is the Swiss depth, especially Valais, where Domaine Chappaz alone runs to 25 listings, so this is the place to sell local terroir to curious guests. Reds dominate at 347 bottles against 220 whites, with strong Loire and Piémont sections behind the French core, and the dessert and fortified range is real at 44 wines. The 39 wines by the glass give you room to work without opening bottles, and native pricing starts low for the tier, around 26 to 33 CHF, so there are honest entry points. It rewards a guest who wants white Burgundy or a Valais discovery, and it gives you the firepower to go very deep when the table is ready.
