the experience

Burgundy with a southern spirit

In southern Burgundy, medieval stone and vine-covered hills create a landscape full of quiet charm. Here, the pleasure of discovering wine is inseparable from the places and traditions behind it. With your private guide, explore the Mâconnais through its heritage and the many expressions of its signature grape, Chardonnay.

A château discovery with wine tasting, complemented by visits and tastings at two local wine estates, brings this character to life, opening a window onto historic settings, cellars and local winemaking. Time for lunch in Mâcon adds a leisurely pause, leaving room to enjoy the town’s atmosphere. A day to appreciate Burgundy’s warmth and variety, with each encounter offering a fresh perspective on its wines.
