- THE SWISS WINE STORE
-
In 2012, Damien Fleury founded his own wine company, THE SWISS WINE STORE (TSWS), in Hong Kong and has taken the post of executive director. TSWS offers a unique and genuine collection of high quality, terroir-driven artisanal wines which are made from rare or indigenous grape varieties.
The wide and diverse selection of red, rose, white, sweet and sparkling wines selected by TSWS come from the top and greatest Swiss family wineries. Since its marketing, Swiss wines from TSWS are highly praised and listed in top hotels and restaurants of Hong Kong such as The Four Seasons, The Peninsula, The Ritz-Carlton, The Island Shangri-La and The Mandarin Oriental, and private clubs such as LRC (Ladies Recreation Club), The Hong Kong Club, The Hong Kong Golf Club and more.
- Damien Fleury, the Wine Master
-
Damien Fleury, a native of the French speaking area of Switzerland, developed a passion for treasured Swiss wines around the early 2000's. Damien's refined and eclectic taste associated with a quest for the best and for authenticity leaded him to become a very close friend to some of the finest Swiss artisan winemakers.
Since then Damien has been devoted to promoting and developing the image of Swiss wines in collaboration with official Swiss organizations during public events and fairs such as Vinexpo in Hong Kong and private events with prestigious Swiss brands such as Hublot, Blancpain, Montblanc and many others. Damien also organized and coordinated Swiss Wine Masterclasses at Vinexpo in Hong Kong with Paolo Basso, Best Sommelier in the World 2013.

- Les Frères Dutruy

Les Frères Dutruy, located in La Côte, Vaud, Switzerland, is one of the finest Swiss winemakers and a star brand in TSWS.
The family estate was founded in 1917. Representative of young generation owners, the two brothers Christian and Julien Dutruy had broadened their horizons by studying and working abroad before taking over the century old family estate in 2006.
Renowned for their fresh and modern wine styles, and among others for bringing back its nobility to the Gamay grape, they have become the reference between Nyon and Geneva.
Christian and Julien inaugurated a brand new state-of-the-art winery in 2015 and have stuck to organic farming firmly.
