The Fantastic Picnic... you’ll be addicted after a weekend in Beaune and Pays Beaunois!
Romantic, chic, bucolic, Burgundian picnics have proved over several years that they are really FAN-TAS-TIC. Celebrating the Fête de la Gastronomie in Burgundy, it’s saying ‘Cheers!’ to great tastes, taking pleasure in a good bottle produced just a few kilometres away to accompany delicious cheeses. Above all, it’s a festive atmosphere: that of a moment absolutely for sharing... picnic on the grass or feet under a table. The Fantastic Picnic... you will get addicted!
