Savoy, France - Wine Regions Episode 11

Savoy is located in the eastern part of France, close to the national border with Switzerland and just south of Lake Geneva.

The region boasts an alpine landscape, and that means vineyards are often scattered
between lakes and hills and found high up on slope sides. The cooler alpine
temperatures mean that the most prolific wines in Savoy are fresh, crisp white
wines.
