"Discovery" day

Wine tastingNow you really can discover everything about the wine production of the Hospices de Beaune.

A discovery visit of the institution has recently been introduced, for lovers of wine and history, which can be done in one day and which is focussed on the wine producing activities.

Becoming imbued with the spirit of the institution and learning about the particular care we take in producing our wine is still the best way the appreciate the quality of our products...
