My Lake Annecy

Just picked the last of the cherries in my garden before the birds have them all. Not that it matters as the cherry tree in our garden produced lots of fruit this year throughout the entire June. You can never tell when the the cherry season start on lake Annecy. It very much depends when the winter ends and when spring starts harvest time tends to start early mid June.

I know you might think cherries, lake Annecy? The region is more famous for alpine outdoor activities and watersport. However the region nearby lake Annecy does produce some very excellent white wine and some delicious fruit such as plums, pears, apples and of course cherries.

I think the cherries here have a lot more flavour than the ones from some of the better known cherry regions. I got my own theory on this. Like with wine, the could winters and snow covered terrains help the cheery trees to rest and recover during the winter season and  produce some very crisp tasting sweet cherries…. I think the 2009 lake Annecy cherry harvest has been a vintage one. I wonder if the birds appreciate it?

Anyway if outdoor and watersports ain’t your thing, you can always come out, visit our house next year and taste some of the cherries for yourself.
