    Hospices de Beaune: The World's Greatest Wine Charity

    Built in 1443 as a hospital for the poor, the Hospices de Beaune has hosted the world's oldest charity wine auction since 1859. In November 2025, the 165th auction raised €18.75 million - the third-highest total ever. The multi-colored glazed roof tiles are the most photographed sight in Burgundy.

    Meursault: The Chardonnay Interlude

    The Côte d'Or's great Chardonnay village - a palate-cleansing detour on your Pinot pilgrimage. Meursault proves that the monks' terroir mapping works for white grapes too. The buttery, honeyed whites here set the template for Chardonnay worldwide.

    Volnay: The 'Feminine' Pinot

    Volnay is called the 'Romanée of the Côte de Beaune' - delicate, perfumed, and traditionally described as 'feminine.' The highest village in the Côte de Beaune produces Pinot Noir of ethereal elegance. No Grand Crus, but Premier Crus like Caillerets rival any.
