Monday takes us to Burgundy famous for you guessed it...wine. Burgundy's finest vintages come from the vine-covered Cote d'Or (Golden Hillside), the narrow, eastern slopes of a limestone, flint and clay ridge that runs south from Dijon for about 60 km.
A historical wine tour that we took...unfortunately for us there was no sampling at the end.
But, it was beautiful...and educational.
"Caves" are apparently cellars in Burgundy. We were able to do a little taste testing in Saint Georges. We got to meet the co-owner of this winery and sample some pinot noir...delicious.
