Chateau de Gilly - Vougeot
The Château de Gilly stands in the heart of Burgundy's
Grands Crus between Dijon and Beaune. Indeed, its history and
its presence are the very essence of the region. Its 14th century
Cistercian origins contrast with the ornamental style of the
17th century to provide a palatial residence standing in formal
"à la Française" gardens. The  estate
includes several historic buildings displaying centuries of
superb craftsmanship, such as the stone-vaulted cellar, now
transformed into a restaurant, which is linked by tunnel to
the main building. The cuisine and the wines are a gastronomic
experience never to be forgotten - a worthy tribute to Burgundian
culture. As one would expect, the hotel arranges a variety of
cultural tours in the footsteps of St Vincent (patron saint
of winemakers) but there are also many other colorful events
that exploit the dramatic features of this fascinating property.

an impressive stone vaulting, the restaurant “Les
Caves de la Cloche” features the cuisine of this
famous French region with a choice of 100 wines and gastronomic
meals accompanied with regional songs every evening. The

cuisine respectful of true tastes and traditions.
