Summary

[edit]
Description

After a few hours in Dijon, the last part of our holiday in Burgundy was going back the scenic route to Beaune via the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Route_des_Grands_Crus" rel="noreferrer nofollow">Route des Grands Crus</a>.


The Route des Grands Crus (roughly, "road of the great wines") is the name of a tourist route situated in Burgundy, France.

The approximately 60-kilometre route runs along the foot of the Côte d'Or escarpment, from Dijon in the north to Santenay in the south. Thus it runs through many of the great appellations of Burgundy wine, hence the name of the route. It takes the visitor through the vineyards of the Côte de Nuits and the Côte de Beaune and the back hills (Hautes-Côtes) behind and above the wine slopes.

It is punctuated by 33 villages or little towns, including Beaune, many of which have picturesque churches.

Brochon is a commune in the Côte-d'Or department in eastern France.

Some of the vineyards in Brochon are part of the appellation d'origine contrôlée Gevrey-Chambertin, and some are part of Fixin appellation. Most are however only entitled to the Côte-de-nuits-villages (fr) (AOC) appellation. There is no Brochon appellation.
