3. Tasting at the cellars Bouchard Aîné et Fils
A unique tour of our wine cellars in Beaune, based on the theme of the five senses The history of Beaune’s House of Bouchard Aîné & Fils melds with that of Burgundy wine and the town of Beaune itself. Bouchard Aîné & Fils cellars, located at the Hôtel du Conseiller du Roy, which dates back to the 18th century, offer visitors a unique historic, cultural, and gustatory experience.
Built in 1743, this jewel of Burgundian architecture houses the headquarters of Bouchard Aîné & Fils. It is located just a five-minute from the town’s famous Hospices de Beaune. At the time it was built, it was the town’s first residence to be built outside the walls. The Hôtel du Conseiller du Roy opens the doors to our cellars for one-of-a-kind tours and tastings, known as the Tour of the Five Senses.
This is an original approach to discovering wine through the five senses, leading up to the grand finale that examines taste and is complemented by a wine tasting.
