To walk through the doors of Maison Olivier Leflaive is to meet a family of winemakers. But don’t expect the décor of an old-fashioned winery. Here, the emphasis is on quality in every sense of the word. The place is refined, the decor meticulous, the atmosphere warm. The hotel offers two restaurants, and it’s at Klima that Burgundian chef Lionel Freitas invites you to lunch on Easter Monday.
In Puligny-Montrachet, stroll from square to square, discovering traditional winegrowers’ houses. This inevitably whets the appetite, and it’s time to savor some delicious food. Le Montrachet reveals its elegant façade between the chestnut trees of the square of the same name. In the kitchen, Romain Versino has taken the opportunity of the Easter festivities to revisit traditional dishes. Lamb finds its place alongside wild garlic and new carrots. The incredible wine list will give you a hard time: which wines to choose? Fortunately, the sommelier is on hand to guide you in your choice.
Michelin-starred chef Philippe Augé works with passion in the kitchens of the Hostellerie de Levernois gourmet restaurant. As you enter the Hostellerie grounds, you’ll notice that spring is well and truly here. Lawns dotted with pretty flowers and tree buds give a bucolic, natural feel to your gourmet escapade. But let’s return to more concrete and above all more appetizing subjects: the Easter menu with its lamb cooked in a fine poppy crust.
Did you know? Within the walls of this incredible building, which houses the Cité des Climats et Vins de Bourgogne, you’ll find the “Les Accords” Discovery Bar, located on the 4th floor with a fantastic view of the Côte de Beaune. After your visit, or before it, or even without visiting at all, you can go there and enjoy a glass of Burgundy wine, accompanied by platters or other dishes made to sublimate the wine, or vice versa 😉 To celebrate Easter, chef Christophe Maisières is proposing a special Easter lunch.
