The Burgundy Wine School: Festive and Immersive Tastings
At The Burgundy Wine School, the art of tasting becomes an accessible game for everyone, from beginners to connoisseurs. Each workshop turns into a friendly moment where you learn while having fun. Imagine savoring a delicious wine, surrounded by giant screens that immerse you in the heart of the vineyards, showing you everything from the cultivation of the vine to the winemaking process. These immersive projections go beyond just landscapes: they also showcase the dishes you’re tasting, enriching every bite and sip with a captivating visual story.
For the celebrations, the school offers three new workshops, perfect for discovering or rediscovering the wines of Burgundy in a festive and original way. It’s a unique chance to dive into an experience that stimulates all the senses.
Explore these three Wine and Food workshops at the Burgundy Wine School: Crémants, Wines and Cheeses, and Wines and Chocolates.
Bursting Bubbles with Burgundy Crémants
Discover the sparkling world of Burgundy Crémants in a dedicated workshop that invites you to explore five meticulously selected crémants known for their finesse and diversity. Paired with these wines brilliantly showcase that our local crémants have nothing to envy from some champagnes.
More than just a tasting, the workshop offers a bold idea: a meal entirely accompanied by bubbles, from appetizers to dessert.
This interactive and educational workshop provides a unique and festive experience that might just inspire you for the perfect gift for the holidays.
Wines and Cheeses, a Reinvented Duo
Far from the traditional red wine and cheese pairings, this workshop explores the surprising harmonies between white wines and cheeses. The secret? A white wine, like Aligoté, can reveal unexpected facets of the creamiest cheeses and enhance their flavor without overpowering them.
The message is clear: set aside the best bottles of red from Grandpa's cellar for later. Avoid bringing them out at the end of the meal when your palate is already saturated, as strong cheeses might overshadow the subtleties of a very tannic red wine.
During this workshop, rediscover the pleasure of finishing a meal on a light and perfectly balanced note with carefully selected regional cheeses and white wines. It's simply an invitation to break the conventions.
The Wine and Chocolate Pairing
Imagine a place where wine and chocolate come together in a delicious dance of flavors. This is the experience offered by this workshop, a true feast for the senses, where each pairing is a delightful revelation.
It’s Sébastien Henon, the talented chocolatier from Dijon, who has carefully selected a range of chocolates that wonderfully complement the flavors of the wines in this workshop. From delicate cherry blossom notes in dark chocolate to the zing of passionfruit chocolate, each piece is an invitation to explore the pleasures of chocolate in a new light.
More than just a tasting, this workshop is a playful and educational exploration of the subtle marriages between wine and chocolate, a must-visit for food lovers and fans of refined treats.
