You can either cross the busy road or take the steps down from the parking area to the tunnel under the road. You can either sample your choice of wines by the glass from the wine list or you can buy a sampler package and they choose the wines. We had the Chasellas package which included 3 whites and the Discovery which included 3 whites and the Plant Robert (only place this grape is planted) red. You can either get each wine one at a time or all at once. There is also a movie about the wine which is shown in English and French. The guy who worked there was very friendly and knowledgeable without being "wine snobby."

Les Freres Dutruy is one of my favourite wine makers in Switzerland. It was the first red wine in…read moreSwitzerland that I really liked. I found it in a restaurant soon after moving here, and then found it for sale in the local Manor. I hadn't had a chance until just yesterday to visit their tasting room. It was a special open doors tasting event for their 2011 winter wines. The tasting room is located in the centre of Founex village, and is easy to find. It is in a historical building, but the decor inside is beautifully done in light wooden modern tones. They are open for wine tasting every Saturday from 10-1pm. I don't think they make any bad wines. I have tasted them all, and they are good, but there are definitely some that shine above the rest. They have three different labels, one is from a vineyard in Founex, another is from a vineyard in Coppet, and the third is a combination of the best grapes from either of the two. The business has been in the family for multiple generations, and is currently run by two brothers. This is a fantastic place and definitely worth a visit. Bonus the owners are extremely friendly and the service is great.
