Saint Nicolas in a gulp: Vineyard walk, wine tastings and samples, the hospitality of Hotel Vagneur, the Old Village and its Stars, and the landscape from Mont Joux.
You'll wander through vineyards adorned in autumn attire, with clusters now ready for harvest. You'll discover how, after over a century of abandonment, viticulture has returned as a protagonist of this land.
You'll sample wines from the Di Francesco-Gasperi Vino&Spiriti cellars, accompanied by cheeses from the Antica Latteria Erbavoglio.
You'll taste the typical dishes of the region paired with wines from Château Feuillet and Maison Vagneur cellars, as told by their producers. After a visit to the village of Vens, you'll traverse a forest of ancient fir trees towards Lake Joux, where a steaming polenta awaits you on an outdoor table facing the magnificent natural backdrop of Gran Paradiso
