Les voyages de Harry: Dijon tour
brown mustard fields

First things first, we went to the mustard fields, an absolute must. These are now turning from bright yellow to beige, as the flower grows into small pods that contain the mustard seeds. After that, I took them through my usual tour trip because I believe this is the only way to truly experience Burgundy.

We set off to the town of Beaune for what else but a few great bottles of wine where we grabbed two fruity yet harmoniously dry Monthélie white wines. We then made our way to the slopes of Volnay to have a breath-taking picnic above the vineyards. We returned to Dijon via the Routes des grands Crus, stopping at the winery Chateau de Pommard and at the wall-enclosed wineyard Chateau du clos de Vougeot.
