Kloster Sion, Religious community and monastery in Aargau, Switzerland.
Kloster Sion stands at 328 meters above sea level, surrounded by vineyards covering 3.3 hectares of mineral-rich soil with Opalinuston and limestone sediment.
The monastery established its wine-making foundations in 1929 when Albert Meier initiated systematic grape cultivation and clonal selection methods for premium wine production.
The monastery combines religious traditions with wine production, creating a center where spiritual practices merge with the preparation of distinguished Swiss wines.
The monastery produces several wines, including Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Gris, with prices ranging from 17.50 to 45 Swiss Francs per bottle.
The location benefits from specific environmental conditions near Klingnauer Stausee reservoir, protected by Achenberg and Schwarzwald mountains for optimal grape growing conditions.
