Become a part of Zürich Wine Academy’s on-the-road adventures and join us on our immersive learning trip to Burgundy, France!

​

Whether you're a wine connoisseur or an enthusiastic learner, Burgundy beckons with its rich past and unparalleled viticultural treasures. This is the birthplace of the revered Pinot Noir grape, and it holds the fascinating tale of King Louis XVI, who turned to aged Burgundian wine at the advice of his physician as a tonic for his health. The intricacies of Burgundy's geography and the lingering influence of medieval monasteries lend an air of mystique to this remarkable "Bourgogne."

​

This immersive experience has been carefully curated by our team of seasoned guides and educators, who bear certifications including Certified Sommelier, WSET Diploma, and French Wine Scholar, and who have also lived in Burgundy while attending the renowned Burgundy School of Business. They will also be your guides and hosts during this lifetime experience.
