The
Slovak group passed through Lavaux during their excursion day from
Geneva to Gruyère.
We walked down from the upper part of Lavaux vineyards to "Baron
Tavernier" where we had an aperitif drink on the suspended terrace-lounge above the shores of Lake Geneva, in the private area under
the chestnut trees. Arthur, the sommelier of Baron Tavernier provided for our group an excellent selections of wine from Lavaux
region.
The ambiance was delightful, the wine tasting was nice and
the view from the terrace was really spectacular.
The
Slovaks were impressed by the majesty of Lavaux landscape. They
learned about its geographic layout, its historic development and the
famous chasselas wines.
The
group finished their long day in one of the Lavaux's restaurants just near the lake.
