The must-read book to discover the emblematic Côte de Nuits. Tips, good deals... Everything is in it!
Nationale 74 – The guide that leads the way to the Grands Crus of Burgundy. Nationale 74 is an invitation to the Champs-Elysées of Burgundy, a long route of 27 appellations, dotted with famous wines: Romanée-Conti, Musigny, Montrachet… And behind these closed doors hide 1,247 climats (Caillerets, Rugiens, Amoureuses, Charmes, Clos des Mouches…) so universal, so exceptional, that UNESCO has included them on the World Heritage list of Humanity. This guide, like a road book, is a journey to the land of great Burgundy wines. Terroir by terroir, it tells you the history of the great appellations of the Côte de Nuits and the Côte de Beaune. In total, 27 stages through the vineyard, from Dijon to Maranges: Gevrey-Chambertin, Vougeot, Chambolle-Musigny, Nuits-St-Georges, Beaune, Pommard, Volnay, Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet… For each village, a map of the climats, good places to taste in the estates, good restaurants, ideas for walks and, of course, everything you need to remember about the appellation wines. In total: 224 pages of wine tourism in Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune, produced by local people! Finally, the ABC of estates and winegrowers, so you don’t make mistakes with your purchases. Plus, a real wine tourism notebook! – EATING… Good restaurants and inns lost in the vineyard. – DRINKING… wine bars, estates, tasting tables, cellars, wine merchants… where to taste. – SLEEPING… cozy rooms and nests, with a view of the vineyard. – MOVING… ideas for walks to explore the great wines.
