A drive across Burgundy will take you through splendid hilly landscapes covered with vineyards. These "climates" are all winegrowing terroirs that bring the plots, grape varieties and know-how together. They all give rise to great vintages renowned throughout the world. Their discovery goes hand in hand with equally exceptional visits to museums featuring outsider art and modern art, a Cistercian monastery classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the house of the poet and novelist Alphonse de Lamartine.

Restaurant and hotel in a village. A true institution of French gastronomy and a charming hotel, the Maison Lameloise has cultivated art de vivre since more than 90 years. In medieval times the cuisine attracted already the Dukes of Burgundy. This long and delightful story is continued by Chef Éric Pras, MOF (Best Craftsman of France), and Frédéric Lamy at the head of the former coach house dating back to the 15th century. The fresh, precise and delicate cuisine of Éric Pras gives this iconic restaurant a new, young image. With the fine tart of Burgundy snails and the potagère of fresh herbs or the suckling veal chop rubbed with marjoram and orange, it pays a delicious tribute to the region and the heritage of the property. ...

‘I was born in Joigny, the Gate to Burgundy, as the sign at the entrance of the town suggests. It is where the region opens its arms to welcome you. I was not rocked by vineyard but by the Yonne River. This stunning course of water flows beneath our windows and is for me both soothing and inspiring. I would like to wake up in the middle of the night and be alone at the water’s edge with my line, waiting to catch some fish. Burgundy is a real paradise for nature lovers and those who want a bit of peace. It’s a region where we can go from the vineyards to the wineries and form the abbeys to the forest; a place where the diversity of climates may soon be classified as world heritage.’
