A common sentiment shared by most wine lovers that all wine roads of personal discovery eventually leads to Burgundy,
journey toward the holy grail for connoisseurs and home to some of the most revered and expensive wines in the world!
From the legendary grand cru vineyards of Richebourg, Romanee Conti, Musigny, to the eccentric yet warmly captivating villages of Saint-Bris and Irancy, Bourgogne invites you on a voyage of the senses at the heart of its great terroirs.
The Ecole des Vins de Bourgogne (The Burgundy School of Wine) was founded in 1974 by the Bureau Interprofessional des Vins de Bourgogne (BIVB) to contribute to a structured knowledge and detailed technical understanding of Burgundy’s wines to both professionals and consumers at large.
The program is crafted for all who are interested in Burgundy wines, wherever you come from and whatever your level of experience! The contents, length of the sessions are tailor adapted to the composition and needs of the respective group.
You will learn how to look at, smell, taste, and speak about wine, while you deepen your knowledge on the wines of Bourgogne that have a diversity and richness unmatched anywhere in the world.
All sessions and programs are conducted by our very own certified international Bourgogne educator, accredited by the BIVB. For bookings and further information, kindly email us at program@entwin3.com for details.
