Staff speak some English and were helpful in getting me a wine I wanted. Prices are also reasonable (well reasonable in burgundy wine is expensive in many other places) and selection is good. I would come back here again.

Although we wish we were, we don't know a whole lot about wine, but we do enjoy tasting to find a favorite and learning more about how to taste. Just buy a tasting package at the counter. You have your choice of 7 wines for 11 euros & a souvenir metal tasting cup or 7 wines + the grand cru wines for 15 euros & a souvenir wine glass. We got 1 of each. Head down into the 13th century caves below and read through the tasting notes and info about each wine. It started with reds, went to white, and ended with the grand cru fancy cooler that a store associate will help you with scanning your "badge." You can pick up a wine carrier to the wines you'd like to buy along the way or just wait until the end for the store. They also go through if you want to ship an order home too. Everyone was very friendly. We ended up loving one of the whites, which surprised us. Stowed it in the luggage and can't wait to break it open for a special occassion!

My husband and I were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary and had 3 nights planned in the…read moreBurgundy region. Wanting an efficient "taste" of the region we decided to take a privately escorted tour. We decided on Burgundy on a Plate based on the very interesting tours that Sue offered as we were looking for something more unique, more personal and more local and Burgundy on a Plate appeared as a huge standout. Since our joint goal was to learn as much as we could about the wine, region and terroir we wanted an english speaker who could translate the intricacies of the region in a detailed manner. As much as we are fascinated with the wines of the region we were also excited and intrigued about truffles, foods, and fruits of the region. Sue is the type of person you find yourself wanting to spend more time with. She is knowledgeable, witty, and very charming. We enjoyed her "joie de vivre" and her passion for France, Burgundy, wine and all things gourmet. She was very organized and timely with her domaine visits, and seemed to have good rapport with the vintners. I talked on the 'phone with Sue ahead of time which was well worth doing as we had the best customized tour possible.

Five Star Evening!…read more It was a perfect evening in BEAUNE. June 21 was the longest day of the year and a cause for celebration in the city. Streets were shut down to traffic, bands were playing in nearly every square and we had a front row seat at this wine bar/Café. We were seated in the wine cellar, so it was a little cooler as well as a bit quieter than if we had been seated at an outside table. Let's start with a Wine. Their 50+ page wine list is outstanding. They were nine pages, just devoted to champagne and sparkling wine. What's more, our young server was more than qualified to help us with the list and to make recommendations. This was an anniversary celebration, so we began with champagne and charcuterie, and a couple of other starters. Later, we moved on to smaller sized mains that included salmon, chicken, and other delicious selections. Two chefs operating in about 2 m² did an impressive job of putting out food. We were able to linger over outstanding champagne and wines while having a wonderful light meal and a most wonderful evening. What a special celebration in Burgundy.

This is a wine bar first and the wine list is like 50 pages long. So, if wine is your jam, this is the spot. Not only that, they seem to educate their wait staff to advise, not upsell. The young woman who served us was probably 22-25 years old and really understood how to explain expectations for each The food. First off, the charcuterie platter was the best I have even tasted.

Definitely make a reservation ahead of time (we did it via email but had to discuss details via phone). They do tastings at 10am, 2pm, and 4pm. The tour was a little over an hour, and then we tasted for about an hour. The grand cru tasting is €120. The most basic one starts at €38 for tastings and a tour. Each one includes 6 glasses. We did the grand cru one, which was: - Chablis Grand Cru Les Preuses 2017 - Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru 2017 - Hospices de Beaune Corton-Vergennes 2014 - Corton Grand Cru 2016 - Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2014 - Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru 2013 Our guide was super knowledgeable and clearly passionate about wine, and we had a great experience on the tour and tasting.

Florian shared his extensive knowledge of local wine accompanied with the region's history. Touring the area by bike gives you the opportunity to really take in the incredible sights and smells of the area. After a short ride, we stopped for a snack and a glass of local wine. Florian even shared produce from his garden. Our next stop was an explanation of a plat of roadside vines. Then, a short bike to Chassagne Montrachet. After touring the winery, we were treated to a very informative tasting by winery staff. We were able to experience the differences in wines due to their distinct terrior. Our next stop was a picnic style lunch at a very nice restaurant. It really gave our group an opportunity to chat and really enjoy Burgundy, over food and wine. We also discovered Florian's home town, Rully, makes very nice wine. After an enjoyable lunch, we cycled to Pommard. There was a headwind, but still a lovely ride. Domaine Lejeune was the last stop of our tour and it was a lovely ending. We were treated to a winery tour during harvest. Seeing the action at the sorting table was a bonus for a winelover. The tasting did not disappoint. We enjoyed wines from Pommard and Mersault. Two of my favorite Burgundian wines! From Pommard, we were transferred back to the pickup location(Tourist Office) by van. Our full day tour seemed to pass quickly and were appreciative to have taken in so much of Burgundy in such a short period. I recommend you ask questions and by an active participant in the tour. Florian is an excellent tour guide who's knowledge extends much further than the local wine and a fun guy to spend the day with. Daryl Gaitan
