A clear morning on the shores of Lake Geneva, air cool and light, the driver eases the vehicle onto the lakeside road and the day opens. Vine terraces climb steep slopes like stone steps carved for the sun, Château de Chillon sits half-emerging from the water, and the road threads villages where palm trees and alpine shadows meet.
