France - Burgundy

Chevaliers du Tastevin

A Karen Brown Recommendation

The hillsides of Clos de Vougeot were first planted by Cistercian monks in the 14th century and a stone wall was built to encircle the vineyards and protect them from raiders in the One Hundred Years’ War. An organization called Chevaliers du Tastevin, now recognized worldwide, chose the 16th-century Château de Vougeot in 1944 as a base from which to publicize Burgundy wines. You can see the courtyard, the great pillared hall where banquets take place, and the impressive cellars and 12th-century wine presses.
