Grapes of Yvorne Photo

Photographer’s Note

A winegrower's estate in Yvorne. This small town built on a hillside is strongly identified with the wine growing industry; its crest is a shield with a large "Y" on top and a triangular bunch of grapes hanging underneath.

Yvorne is in the Chablais region. This region and the neighboring region of Lavaux are filled with vineyards which are terraced into the steep hillisides.

I posted a prior shot of this vineyard but it was taken before the vines had sprouted; this one shows the vineyard with some color.
