Discover the Wonders of Burgundy
From Lyon, embark on a journey to the heart of Burgundy, a region where breathtaking landscapes, centuries of history, and exquisite flavors come together. Head north and let yourself be enchanted by the vineyards that gracefully stretch across the rolling hills.
Your first stop is the Côte de Beaune, home to the renowned Château de Pommard. This iconic estate, steeped in history, invites you to uncover the secrets of Burgundy’s famous climats, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. During a private tour, dive into the fascinating world of this unique terroir before savoring a selection of six exceptional wines. Subtle aromas, balanced flavors, and the timeless charm of the château promise an unforgettable experience.
Next, continue your journey to Aloxe-Corton, a prestigious and rare appellation celebrated for being the only one in Burgundy to produce both white and red Grand Crus. This vineyard, cherished by legends like JFK and Charlie Chaplin, offers an immersive experience at a family-run estate where time seems to stand still. Wander through sun-drenched vineyards, explore a character-filled property, and step into a Benedictine cellar dating back to the 13th century, a silent witness to Burgundy’s rich viticultural heritage. Here, lunch is a highlight: enjoy a refined Burgundy meal paired with six exceptional wines (one regional, one village, one Premier Cru, and three Grand Crus), all accompanied by passionate sommeliers who will share their expertise and stories.
Finally, end your day on a high note in Vosne-Romanée, another gem in Burgundy’s crown. At a family estate, you’ll explore authentic cellars and taste five remarkable wines from the Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits. Each sip reveals a piece of this exceptional terroir’s soul, bringing your day of discovery, emotion, and indulgence to a memorable close.
Prepare yourself for a sensory and cultural immersion in a Burgundy that never ceases to amaze.
