Private Grand Cru wine tasting in Burgundy
Discuss my tasting programmePrivate & bespoke wine tours since 1999A memorable tasting needs more than a prestigious label. Bourgogne Gold Tour helps you place the wine in context, with a private programme that connects the glass to the vineyard and to the questions you want to explore.
Understand what you are tasting
In Burgundy, an appellation and a producer’s name convey different information. A guided programme can help you distinguish the classification of a wine from the identity of the estate that makes it.
Premier Cru and Grand Cru can form part of the tasting brief, alongside village wines or other selections that make the comparison meaningful. Your experience determines whether the discussion begins with the basic terms or moves into more detailed questions.
Discuss the published tasting formulas
Bourgogne Gold Tour presents Gold, Platinium, Saphir and Diamant options for several Côte routes. Their published descriptions indicate different tasting levels; they should be discussed in relation to the current offer and your chosen day.
If rare wines, older vintages or a particular appellation matter to you, identify them before booking. The price, available bottles and appointments need to be agreed for the specific programme.
Separate vineyard views from estate access
A visit near a famous parcel does not include an appointment inside its estate unless confirmed. It also does not establish that the estate’s wine will be poured.
For Romanée-Conti in particular, a vineyard stop, a domaine visit and a tasting of a named bottle are separate requests. Be precise about which experience you are seeking and check the confirmed inclusion.
Give the tasting a pace that suits your party
A couple, a group of collectors and a Wine Club may all want a different depth of explanation. Let us know your interests, preferred language and any differences in experience within the group. That brief helps the day remain rewarding for everyone.
Only when the agreed proposal expressly confirms it. A page about Grand Cru tasting is not a guarantee of every named wine.
Yes. State your experience so that the discussion and selection can be considered appropriately.
Ask for the proposed selection and any items still subject to availability. Confirm those details before accepting the programme.
