LAVAUX

A unique terraced vineyard landscape

Between Lausanne and Chillon, Lavaux overlooks Lake Geneva. Sun exposure, light reflection from the lake, and the warmth stored in stone walls shape wines with a distinctive, structured, and persistent profile.

Saint-Saphorin, the heart of our terroir

Set on the steep terraces of Lavaux, Saint-Saphorin is one of the most distinctive wine villages in the canton of Vaud. Facing Lake Geneva and protected by its stone walls, the vineyards benefit from generous sunlight, lake reflection and stored heat from the terraces.

This setting gives the wines their unique identity: fresh, structured and elegant, with mineral depth, subtle richness and notes that can recall almond, honey and lightly toasted aromas.

For Francey Vins, Saint-Saphorin is not simply an appellation. It is the landscape, climate and heritage that shape the character of the domaine’s wines.
