Discover Burgundy on a wine holiday from South Africa
Plan my Burgundy experiencePrivate & bespoke wine tours since 1999Whether you know wine well or are visiting your first European wine region, Burgundy offers a rewarding change of setting. Bourgogne Gold Tour helps you turn an interest in wine into a private journey through the places, people and ideas behind it.
Build your own points of comparison
If you enjoy exploring wine regions at home, bring the questions that have stayed with you. You might want to understand how a village name appears on a label, why neighbouring sites are distinguished or what a producer contributes to a wine’s character.
The aim is to add to your experience, not to assume that every visitor wants the same comparison. Tell us which grapes and styles interest you, then discuss a tasting route that answers those questions.
Decide what deserves a full day
A day focused on one part of Burgundy leaves more space for conversation than a schedule built around covering the greatest distance. For a longer stay, consider separate days for red and white wine interests or for two different wine areas.
If Grand Cru wines are central to the trip, make that clear at the enquiry stage. Ask what is proposed for tasting, how the selection fits your budget and which elements remain subject to availability.
Coordinate the local arrangements
Share the Burgundy section of your France itinerary, including your accommodation and arrival point. Pickup in Beaune or Dijon can be discussed alongside a private vehicle and English-language guiding.
For a Wine Club or group of friends, add the group’s experience level and any meal requirements. If you hope to send bottles to South Africa, confirm eligibility and delivery terms before making purchases.
The page presents private experiences in Burgundy. Flights and travel from South Africa are not automatically part of the wine-tour proposal.
Yes, explain the range of interests in your group. That helps shape the pace and the depth of discussion.
Only an expressly confirmed selection establishes that inclusion. A request for Grand Cru wines is the starting point for a proposal.
