The wine region of Genève
Geneva, at the western end of Lac Léman (Lake Geneva), is the second-largest city in Switzerland and the country's third-largest wine producing canton after Valais and Vaud. Although not famously associated with wine, the city and its environs are home to numerous Vineyards and wineries, some within just a few miles of the Center. At 1,400 hectares (3,500 acres), Geneva accounts for 10 percent of the country's vineyard area. Gamay is the predominant variety here, with the Swiss workhorse Chasselas (often labelled "Fendant") and Pinot Noir taking second and third place respectively.
The word of the wine: Biodynamics
Biodynamic farming method initiated by Rudolf Steiner which forbids all chemical treatments based on synthetic products. Biodynamics is based on the interaction between the movements of the planets and the development of plants and uses preparations based on organic and mineral materials.
