1.By Car

If you have a special idea where to visit, you had better make an appointment in case even in off-seasons when it is usually no problem without appointments.

This is the road(7k)Now it is a matter of driving technique. Grand-crus vineyards are over mountain slopes, where you have to pass a car in the opposite side of narrow road (as shown in the picture). If you can clear this point, driving is the best way to see around this area.


2.Guided Tours

If you don't have a special idea where to go and see, it's nice to take part in some guided tours to see around Bourgogne. (See the tables below for the detailed of the tours)

3.To Visit Each Domaine or Négociant Around Beane Directly

Invited by a lot of signboards, you can visit them with ease. Usually, explanations of caves are given and tastings are allowed. Please keep it in mind, however, négociants want to sell the wines, therefore, sometimes you feel some unease when you try to come out without buying any wines.
