You push off from Lanzerac’s gravel, the e-bike humming under you while vineyards slope away like organized waves. The air carries a cool cut of earth and fermenting grapes; oak trees lean in to shade singletrack and farm lanes that link cellar doors. Riding here feels like pace-setting with the landscape—hills that would challenge your legs instead invite you to look around.
