Burgundy
From grand châteaux to picturesque waterways, Burgundy is home to the world’s most expensive wines produced in tantalizingly small quantities.
From the moment you arrive in Burgundy, you’ll hear of its unique terroir – the cacophony of environmental factors and human actions that impart a unique quality on the growing vines. For hundreds, if not thousands of years, growers in the region have sought to harness the power of the soil to produce incomparable wines, many of which are the most desirable in the world.
On your Bacchus and Clio journey to Burgundy, you’ll uncover grand cru vineyards, taste some of the rarest
wines of the region and meet the lauded producers who carry on their forefathers’ winemaking traditions.
Your personal sommelier will combine terroirs and tastings, giving you an in-depth understanding of the area and the confidence to share newfound knowledge when you return home. In between sampling the best of Burgundy, your private culture guide will tell tales of dukes and kings, introducing you to the gothic estates that were once their sprawling homes.
