Les Grandes Heures de Cluny: Trip Planning Guide
Cluny, France
Going to Les Grandes Heures de Cluny?
A summer cultural festival in the medieval abbey town of Cluny, combining classical music performances with wine tastings from southern Burgundy producers. Concerts take place in the Romanesque abbey ruins, and vignerons from Mâconnais and Beaujolais pour during intervals.
Your trip blueprint
Book evening concerts in advance—the Romanesque abbey acoustics are sublime but seats fill fast. Mâconnais producers like Domaine Leflaive often pour during classical intervals; their unoaked Chardonnays are rarely showcased outside Burgundy, making this a true collector's moment.
About Burgundy
Burgundy (Bourgogne) is the spiritual home of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay — and arguably the most complex wine region on earth. A mosaic of tiny appellations (called "crus"), each expressing the minutest differences in soil and slope.
