“Les Grands Jours de Bourgogne 2024” is a world-renowned event in which the harvesting of prized local grapes and production of wines is carried out, aimed at promoting Burgundy as one of the largest and most prestigious territories made up of excellent quality vineyards.

Each year there are hundreds of wineries attending the event, thousands of wines being tasted, and many locations located in numerous Burgundy villages. The initiative aims to bring visitors to taste wines directly in the places where they were produced, for example, those from theVosnee Romané areal, to be savored inside the historic Château Du Clos De Vougeot.

The Les Grands Jours de Bourgogne event each year is held in the presence of the local and global press, industry professionals and hundreds of buyers, half of whom come from France, with the remainder from more than 55 different nations, including Italy, and in increasing numbers Asia and China.

Les Grands Jours de Bourgogne: a very special event

The Les Grands Jours de Bourgogne event is truly one-of-a-kind and unique, because during the days it takes place, guests take the opportunity to taste a range of tasty wines divided by production region, and to understand the complex subdivision into Climats and Lieux-dits.
Climats are plots of land favored by profitable and special geological and climatic conditions. The term “Climats” was made official by theNational Institute of Origin and Quality (INAO) back in 1935, to the point of being introduced into the legal texts of Burgundy appellations. Climats represent a sign of local wine excellence, to the point of being included on the World Heritage List.

Grands Jours de Bourgogne is a world-renowned event that has been held now since 1992, bringing together for several days, wine professionals and market players in the heart of Burgundy. Starting from Chablis to the Côte Chalonnaise and continuing to the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune, enthusiasts have the opportunity to travel through these vast terrors and taste quality wines in a dozen special places.
The edition is experienced with eager anticipation by members of the Burgundy Wine Association, who aspire to welcome visitors from around the globe in the best possible way.

Thousands of exhibitors and impeccable organization

Exhibiting their products each year are thousands of accredited exhibitors, divided between French and foreign, many of them from the Americas and the Orient. The breakdown by professional category boasts a high percentage of importers, wine merchants and specialty store owners, but also very good sommeliers attached to restaurants and sales agents.
Adding to the high quality of the event is the fact that the selection of exhibitors is always extremely thorough; in order for a restaurateur to be accredited, in fact, he may be asked to send in his wine list.

The organization is always precise and impeccable, starting with the enforcement of safety regulations and continuing with the convenient and capillary shuttles that transport experts from one vineyard to another, from one location to another. In addition, the meals are of high quality and are served by experienced and friendly professionals.

Le Grands Jours de Bourgogne is an event that those directly involved consider unmissable, as it allows them to taste these delicious and fine wines directly in captivating, elegant, evocative and very convenient locations: not infrequently, it is possible to do so inside opulent chateaux.

Wine vintages

Most of the wines presented were from the vintages of the years just past, which apparently were very similar to those of 1988, 1989, 1990, which all the operators remember with extreme pleasure for the quality of the harvest.

The2018 vintage was characterized by the presence of totally closed white and red wines, which will perhaps express themselves better later in time. The2018 vintage in Burgundy was characterized by a rainy winter and a very hot summer, which generated the perfect harvest. In 2018, just as in Italy, there was a very productive and high quality vintage.

It’s a different story for the2019 vintage, characterized by the presence of elegant, ready wines with graceful muscularity; for example, much of the Poully Fussè produced flowers and fruit that form bouquettes perfect for adorning sumptuous tables. The 2019 wines turn out to be enveloping, characterized by crispness, minerality, infinite length and textbook freshness. The 2019 vintage in Burgundy was unique in that it was strongly contrasted: on the one hand, there were late frosts and on the other, summer heat. This particular year’s harvest, however, has been calm, and there are many who are beginning to think about the “magic of 9″, based on which organizers and participants believe that the years with the number 9, beginning in the 20th century, have always been nothing short of wonderful, if not for a single flaw related to low production. Wines of excellent quality, then, although the harvests have not exactly been plentiful.
