Your destination, Beaune. Between historic town and wine villages, the perfect day is waiting for you! When you arrive at the station, don’t waste a minute! Head for the Beaune market. Let yourself be guided by thesmells, colours and typical atmosphere. The children marvel at the cheeses, and pick up a slice of artisanal sausage, while you sample a little of everything.Snails, crème de cassis, seasonal fruits… a sensory immersion right in the heart of Burgundy’s terroir. A few bouch&eacutees later, stomachs start à crying famine. You push open the door of Caves Madeleine, charmed by the hushed, friendly atmosphere. The dishes are made using produce from the market you’ve just come from. A treat for young and old alike.

Tastings in sight!Focus on Fallot Mustard Mill and Domaine Besancenot

But the day is just beginning. To please the children, who love cooking, you continue your exploration with a visit to the Moutarderie Fallot, dernière artisanal mustard factory in Beaune. While the little ones dive into the sensory tour, you listen attentively to Sophie, who passionately shares the secrets of production… but be warned, ça remains between you. Then it’s off to the Domaine Besancenot, for a commented wine tasting. The children savour local syrups while nibbling on gougères, while you discover the vintages of the region.
