Day by day

On the last weekend of January, a different Burgundy village opens its cellars for the Saint-Vincent Tournante: the growers' societies parade with their statues of Saint Vincent in the morning, then visitors go from cellar to cellar with a tasting kit. Kits are sold online only, in advance, and parking in the host village is very scarce, so your driver drops you at its edge and collects you later. Winter Beaune is quiet: the Hôtel-Dieu and the Marché aux Vins open every day, and the truffle season runs until the end of January.

Saint-Vincent Tournante · The next edition starts on Fri 29 January: the plan’s first day follows it.
