Conservation

Hydrate Between Tastings
Carry a reusable water bottle to rinse your palate and stay hydrated during vineyard visits and lakeside stops.
Bring a Light Jacket
Even in summer the lakes can produce a cool breeze; a windbreaker keeps you comfortable during outdoor tastings and viewpoints.
Wear Stable Footwear
Winery visits include gravel paths and sloped terraces — shoes with good grip make vineyard walks easier.
Respect Tasting Limits
If you’re driving independently after the tour, pace tastings and use provided private transport to avoid drinking and driving.
Comfortable walking shoes
Gravel, slope and vineyard rows are easier to navigate with supportive soles.
Reusable water bottle
