This tour was definitely the highlight of our two days in Lausanne! Marc was a personable, highly proficient wine connoisseur/educator who seemed to know a little bit about everything! Because of construction at Lutry, we began our tour at Grandvaux and worked our way through the vineyards, stopping at one lovely point after another to find out about the types of grapes grown, the history of the area, the geography, the farmers, the types of wine they produce and why....it was fascinating! We tasted one of the wines grown in the vineyard that produced those grapes and had a full tasting of 6 Swiss wines, all wonderful, along with a generous charcuterie at the final destination, a local wine producer. The weather was a little drizzly at times, and the descent was a bit steep (which may be difficult for people who have trouble walking). However, we thoroughly enjoyed this trip. We splurged a bit to do it, but this tour was worth every penny! Thank you, Marc!Our Wine Walk with Marc was probably the most fun we had on a tour during our trip to Switzerland earlier this month.
