DISCOVERING THE BURGUNDIAN VINEYARD
The Climats de Bourgogne were added to the UNESCO world heritage on 4th July 2015. This was the recognition of the unique character of the vineyards between Dijon and Beaune and as far as Santenay.
Pommard, Volnay, Meursault, Le Montrachet… names which enthral all wine enthusiasts … These villages with their enchanting names can all be reached in under 15 minutes by car.
On foot, by car, by bike, in a carriage, but also in an ultra-light, a helicopter or a hot-air balloon… there are many ways of visiting the Burgundian vineyard. The wine-growers will take you round their cellars to taste the exceptional vintages.
