Fêtes de vendages (Sept 20, 2014)

I apologize for this being a while ago, but I went to the Fêtes de vendages in a village by Geneva called Russin which is one of the famous local winery areas. It's unique in the sense that it's not a winery opening festival or beaujolais nouveau parties but basically celebrates the harvest of the vineyards. There's food stands, wine tasting, music, and lots of other traditional Swiss activities. This was my first weekend since school has started so it was great to be out enjoying some nice wine and good company (for those who are not familiar, Switzerland produces some quite nice wines. It's just that it's rarely exported outside of the country!) 

Quite an international gathering (including our group!), it's an event enjoyed by locals and expat communities

Sausages..!

It's a really cute traditional Swiss village ^^

Wine tasting time!

The rose was quite good

Night time light up

I think this was mash potato like maize

Sausage, maize, bread, and wine..what more do I need?
