What if you treated yourself to a parenthèse à deux, in the heart of thepeaceful landscapes of Burgundy? Find a little corner of paradise and treat yourself to a break away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. We suggest a escale perched between sky and vine, for a two-day break placed under the sign of sweetness and relaxation. A weekend that promises to be restful and romantic, while taking time to wander the ancient streets, admire a sunset over the cliffs of Baubigny, and dîners à candlelight, simple but unforgettable moments, à savour à two.

Two days, two people
between cliffs and vineyardsDay 1
Orches and Saint-RomainSet sail for Orchesfor a escapade full of charm. Put your suitcases down at chambres d’hôtes sur le Roc, where François and Blandine welcome you with warmth and good humour. Your host will be delighted to tell you all about the history of the area. A native Burgundian, winegrower and poet, he’s the man you need to discover the area. It’s also an opportunity to test the wines of François during a tasting, imbued with character and terroir. Set off to décover the surroundings of your new home and flâner in the village, à la carte : winegrower houses and still houses. Don’t miss the fontaine du Chêne, topped by Gallo-Roman stèles, a local curiosity. Settled at the foot of the falaise de Baubigny, the origin of the winegrowing côte, put on your best shoes as a hike circuit awaits you. It links Orches à Saint-Romain in 7km, and allows you to admire the view, from the top of the cliffs. On the way, take the time to pass through the mdeacute;diéval village of Dracy, which from its ruins will tell you its history, marked by civilisations and invasions until the 14th century when it was abandoned. Once you reach the summit of Saint-Romain, enjoy a moment suspended between sky and vines.

In the evening, head to the Bistrot des Falaises: a country bistro atmosphere, dried flowers, wicker hanging baskets… and a luscious local cuisine, worked with care by the chef, enough to rediscover theflavours of home and memories of the good old days. A final stroll before returning to your cocoon for the night, a romantic moment under the clear skies of Saint-Romain.

parenthèse beaunoiseThe next morning, after a home-cooked breakfast prepared by Blandine, François takes you behind the scenes of his job as a winegrower-poacher.Dive into the day-to-day life of a family of passionate winemakers with the “Vis ma Vigne“: A winegrower’s immersion in the heart of the vineyards of the Haute-Côte, combining traditional methods, transmission and sensory discovery. Guided by François, you’ll learn how to read the vines, and how to <strongo;écouter… before tasting five cuvées, including the one from the plot you’ve tread. An authentic moment between nature, passion and dégustation. At lunchtime, head to à Beaune, and régale around the great classics of the region: jambon persillillé, œufs en meurette; bœuf bourguignon; cassis for dessert… A real festival of flavours! And don’t forget the glass of aligoté for white wine lovers, célébrant the Bouzeron and this weekend.
To round off your Burgundy escapade in style, it’s impossible not to visit the hospices de Beaune. Behind itsgothic façade with varnished roofs, this emblematic monument immerses you in six centuries of history and solidarity.
