Wine tourism destinations in Burgundy
Come and discover the sheer wealth of the vineyards of Burgundy! Burgundy is a land of encounters, discussions, and culture, where you'll really be able to "experience" the winemaking destinations bearing the Vignobles & Découvertes label: the Yonne vineyards (Chablisien, Auxerrois, Tonnerrois, Vézelien and Jovinien), the 'Route des Grands Crus de Bourgogne' (Route of the Great Burgundy Wines), Bourgogne: Couchois, Mâconnais and Côte chalonnaise, Pouilly-Giennois-Sancerre and Châtillonnais.
The Sancerre-Pouilly-Giennois triangle
In this area full of flavours and grape varieties, there are 4 different AOC (Protected Designation of Origin): Sancerre, Côteaux du Giennois, Pouilly-Fumé, and Pouilly-sur-Loire, the smallest AOC of the Centre Loire wines!
The Couchois
This vineyard is not particularly well-known as it only covers a mere 225 hectares around the Château de Couches, but this hidden gem is worth exploring nevertheless, and you’ll have the opportunity to stop by and meet some of the winegrowers from this appellation.
