About Us

OUR QUALITY

The Simonius family represents one of the oldest and most respected Swiss noble lineages, with an entrepreneurial history that spans centuries across different sectors of the Swiss economy. For over two hundred years, the Simonius have been indissolubly linked to the historic Propriété Veillon Au Cloître, where they have developed profound expertise in the winemaking tradition of French-speaking Switzerland. Through generations of business commitment, from finance to international commerce, the family has always maintained strong roots in the Aigle territory, jealously guarding the secrets of Alpine winemaking. Today, Jessica Simonius has decided to honor this centuries-old heritage by founding SIMONIUS Fine Swiss Wine, an enterprise dedicated exclusively to distributing the region’s most prestigious wines. This new adventure represents the natural culmination of a family journey that unites noble tradition, entrepreneurial competence, and passion for excellence. The Simonius bring to the world the authenticity of a unique wine heritage, where each bottle tells the story of a family that has made quality and prestige its fundamental values, transforming a centuries-old passion into a commercial mission of excellence.
