Château Vélo Vino en Côte de Nuits

Bookings must be made 10 days in advance at the following address: info@active-tours.fr!

Discover the vineyards of the Côte de Nuits, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, by bike.

This easy tour is without a guide, but with the help of a GPS application (downloadable after booking) and a road book. On the programme: cycling, touring, tasting and eating along the route des Grands Crus!

This ride between Dijon and Nuits Saint Georges passes through some of the most prestigious appellations on the Côte de Nuits, so it's not for nothing that the road you'll be taking is also known as "Burgundy's Champs Elysées".

From our office in the historic centre of Dijon, close to the train station, you will be equipped with your bike, helmet, road book, GPS application (very easy to use) and your return train ticket.

And off you go for your adventure! Once you've left Dijon on a cycle route, you'll arrive at the Château de Marsannay in the heart of the vineyards for a tour and tasting of 6 wines.

Then it's on to a succession of world-famous names as you pedal along. Gevrey Chambertin heralds the start of the 28 Grands Crus parcels you'll be passing through, although Burgundy only has 33!

Morey Saint Denis then Chambolle Musigny, the appellation often associated with the elegant, feminine red wine of the Côte de Nuits. It's here that you'll have lunch in a restaurant serving traditional, refined cuisine.

Your tour continues with a stop at the iconic Château du Clos de Vougeot, the birthplace of Burgundy wines.

There's more to come, as your pilgrimage takes you past Romanée Conti, the DRC estate, quite simply the vineyard that produces the world's most prestigious wine! Just a few more kilometres through the vineyards on a cycle path to Nuits St Georges for your final cellar visit and 4-wine tasting session.

Your day on the bikes will end with a return by train to Dijon.

This is a private tour, so you'll be on your own, and we can design a project to suit your wishes and needs.
