On September 16, the Acad\u00e9mie du Cep de Gen\u00e8ve celebrated its 70th anniversary during its annual Chapter in the nearby wine village of Russin, where the 60th f\u00eate des vendanges was also held.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, this brotherhood brings together some 550 members “who, in a spirit of friendship and conviviality, celebrate wine”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our General Secretary Marc Lesk was invited to attend. He was able to appreciate the extent to which the brotherhood has established itself among winegrowers, elected representatives and wine lovers in general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are regularly invited to take part in grape variety recognition challenges, which enable them to move up the ranks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Novices can become “Compagnons bons d\u00e9gustateurs” if they manage to identify the grape varieties in three out of the five glasses presented to them at a tasting competition. A flawless performance in the competition leads directly to the rank of “Ecuyer”; if this is repeated three times, the member becomes a Chevalier, then Master Chevalier and so on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the Chapter, many members were inducted and promoted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Vino, in Vino, in Vino<\/em>
In vino veritas<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Gen\u00e8ve on dit que le bon vin est notre ami<\/em>
Et nous serons toujours l’ami du bon vin<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Refrain<\/span><\/em>
Bois ce vin compagnon, fruit de la vigne<\/em>
Et du travail des Hommes<\/em>
\u00d4 Genevois, soyons fiers et sans soucis<\/em>
A l’eau de-l\u00c3 , je pr\u00c3\u00a9f\u00c3\u00a8re le vin d’ici<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gloire \u00e0 nos vignerons, \u00e0 la vigne et aux raisins<\/em>
Car ils nous procurent cet excellent vin<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Refrain<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A NOUS, A LA VIGNE ET AU VIN ! SANTE !<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The meal, the festivities in the streets of Russin, and the aperitifs offered by the wine producers and local authorities, introduced visitors to the many crus of the Geneva Appellation (whites, reds, sparkling wines…), and to specialities such as the Longeole, an exceptional sausage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
