  _ Aigle Switzerland guide   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-16)
Aigle is the main town of the Chablais wine region, and its prime landmark – the fantastical Château d’Aigle, a fifteenth-century folly with corner towers and witch’s-hat turrets – is now home to two excellent museums devoted to wine and wine production.
Aigle’s other claim to fame is five hundred years old: in 1476, the town was integrated into Canton Bern as the first French-speaking territory to join the Swiss Confederation.
Along with its near-neighbour Yvorne, Aigle produces what are acclaimed as the best wines of the region, and some of the best in all Switzerland, the gravelly clay-like soil nurturing especially good dustily elegant, fruity whites (“It’s difficult to find a bad white Aigle,” commented wine writer John C. Sloan).
