Visit Clos de Vougeot on bike

Wine is about sharing and exchanging!  And the bike makes you happy!

“Wine is one of the most civilized things in existence. In my capacity as a wine grower, the path of gentleness and respect enables me to make my way towards the highest degree of expression of my soils. This gentleness, chosen with due consideration, often follows the paths of tradition.” F. Trapet

Spend a long weekend in the wine region dedicated to your sense of well-being and peace of mind. You are sure to be in the perfect place to be charmed by the authenticity of the Burgundy vineyards.
