- The House Von Moos in Graubünden stands out as one of the few patrician estates among the region's farmhouses, reflecting its unique historical and economic significance. Its design is deeply tied to the winemaking tradition that has been central to the house's identity since its creation.
- Viticulture, a mark of distinction among the elite, shapes the building's purpose. The house is equipped with facilities for winemaking, storage, and aging, with its walls providing insulation for each season, from the spring pruning to the winter aging process.
