The van eases off Route 14 and the vine rows come forward like a living grid, lake-borne breezes pushing cool air through leaves that have held the sun all day. On a private six‑hour tour from Geneva you move at the pace of the group: short cellar visits, slow porch conversations, and occasional stretches among the vines where the earth smells of loam and fermenting fruit.
