Carbon Neutral Trip
We spent one day in Burgundy decades ago and decided to never leave. You'll spend six—so consider yourself warned. Coast from one heavenly vineyard to the next, clinking glasses with our expert friends, stay in some of Burgundy's finest hotels, and explore historic Beaune, where our hometown advantage grants us access to exclusive events and illustrious hosts.
