The wine region of Lavaux
Iconic Vaud vineyard (Switzerland) on terraced slopes along Lake Geneva's north shore, UNESCO-listed in 2007. Chasselas reigns as signature white: fine and delicate with signature notes of white flowers, citrus, white apple, fresh almond and a chalky mineral touch, a taut and straight palate — Swiss soul, for aperitif or fondue. Fine Pinot Noir (cherry, undergrowth) and supple Gamay as minority reds. 8 AOCs including prestigious Dezaley and Saint-Saphorin.
The wine region of Vaud
World reference for Chasselas (~60% of the vineyard). Mineral, delicate whites with signature notes of green apple, citrus, white flowers, fresh almond and a saline touch, low acidity and a silky palate. Maximum expression in Lavaux (UNESCO 2007) on Lake Geneva terraces. Also La Côte, Chablais and the iconic Dézaley.
The word of the wine: R-C (champagne)
Harvesting-cooperator. It is the cooperative which elaborates the champagne of its members from their mixed contributions. It gives them bottles on which they stick their own label. It is legal without being intellectually honest. When you walk around the Champagne region, you may come across signs that say "Vigneron récoltant" to indicate a member of a cooperative. You can always ask him where his vats and press are.
