Burgundy can be a tricky district to travel in. There are several big known “houses” (negociants), often the ones seen on the export market, but if you are on a wine tour in Burgundy, it is seldom the most famous names that are most exciting to visit. There reception often becomes a little bit impersonal.
At the smaller producers it is different, and there are many that are “smaller” in Burgundy. There are many family companies that have no more than a dozen or so hectares, but, on the other hand, can easily make twenty different wines. Here the wines are often more personal, as is the reception, and at least as good.
On our tours in Burgundy we show both these sides of the wine industry, both the big negociants, which are an important part of the wine sector, not least internationally, but the focus is mostly on the smaller producers. If you are not intimately familiar with Burgundy, finding the most interesting wine estates to visit can be difficult.
Here are some comments from people who have travelled with us in the vineyards in Burgundy, and visited the wine producers:

We would like to thank you so much for the lovely days in Burgundy. Both I and Teresa thought the trip was very rewarding and we came home thinking that we have come much closer to the country and to the wine. We appreciated the ambitious winery visits and the amazing gourmet lunches and we thought we were very well taken care of by you and those who met us at the wineries. Best of all was the charming visit to Pavelot and the wines that most impressed use were at Philippe Chavy. Many thanks once again!
— Niklas & Teresa
