Village of Meursault

We are delighted to offer a curated travel experience to Burgundy, a nexus of history, gastronomy and timeless French charm.

Our week-long cultural-immersion experience will be based in a gorgeous villa in the village of Meursault, surrounded by legendary vineyards of the Côte de Beaune. From this ideally situated home base, we’ll explore the region’s rich tapestry of medieval towns, grand abbeys, and storied wine estates.

Each day will bring a new adventure: gentle e-bike rides through world-famous vineyards, guided tastings at small, family-run domaines, and shopping at outdoor markets overflowing with seasonal produce, cheeses, flowers, and locally made artisanal gifts.

Hôtel Dieu, Beaune

We’ll dive into the soul of nearby Beaune - with its dazzling Hôtel Dieu and cobbled lanes, and Dijon, the historic capital of the dukes of Burgundy (and the gastronomical heart of France). Along the way, we’ll enjoy unforgettable meals at local bistros and at home, prepared by our favorite Burgundian home cook, Chef Laure. We’ll walk down the street for a deliciously informative wine-and-cheese tasting that recently won a “Best of Burgundy” award, make our own mustard at a historic moutarderie, and learn to cook local specialties in a cooking class inspired by that day’s market.
