Further information
Your day will begin with a discovery of the Côte de Nuits, the realm of Pinot Noir. The very essence of this region is embodied by its passionate winemakers. Meeting these dedicated artisans is a highlight of any visit, as they eagerly share their generations of expertise, explaining the unique nuances of each climat. A tasting at a local winery will introduce you to the rich and complex wines of the area, including renowned appellations like Gevrey-Chambertin, Vosne-Romanée, and Nuits-Saint-Georges.
Lunch will be a delightful experience at a local restaurant, a charming table d'hôtes on a wine estate, or a relaxed picnic enjoyed with a winemaker.
Moving south to the Côte de Beaune, you'll encounter a greater diversity of grape varieties than its northern neighbor. While Pinot Noir is still cultivated for red wines, Chardonnay reigns supreme, producing world-renowned white wines from prestigious appellations such as Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet, and Corton-Charlemagne. You'll visit a family-owned estate and have the opportunity to taste these fresh and expressive wines.
