Dag Pierre! Mooi fotos. Lovely little page about this pretty village. How did the wine compare to South African wines? (in your opinion). The architecture is interesting here.

Our visit to Burgundy was long ago. It is satisfying to learn that it is still unspoiled (although infrequently visited). You will enjoy Brittany and Normandy also.

Great info. My wife & I are visiting Burgundy this May (2008). We are staying south of Beaune at Domaine Laflaive. We love your Beaune page. Can you recommend any wineries that are open to the public that we can visit without a guided tour?
