Autumn evening stroll

When the autumn colors have taken hold of the vines,
come to the foot of La Madone in Givry, around 6pm. As the sun sets over the Chaume, the light illuminates the entire Saône plain and the Cellier aux Moines. It’s a magical moment.

A cool walk

A short morning stroll through the vineyards of Rully, with the medieval château in sight, before the sun began to beat down too hard. A very pleasant moment.

Back to the time of the Grand Dukes

As we strolled along the Côte Chalonnaise, we discovered the Château de Germolles, former home of Marguerite de Flandres.
A bucolic place steeped in history, the guide – owner and true scholar – passionately recounted the history of the château and the Dukes of Burgundy.
A true return to the time of the Grand Dukes! The 14th-century murals were a particular highlight.
