Wine accommodation in Burgundy: spring 2026 looks exceptional

Wine accommodation in Burgundy: why spring 2026 is a game changer

Burgundy is living a pivotal year. The 2025 vintage, harvested last autumn, is unanimously hailed by critics as one of the most promising of the decade. Early barrel tastings reveal Pinot Noirs of remarkable finesse and Chardonnays with crystalline tension. For wine lovers, now is the time to come and taste this terroir at its most vibrant.

A 2025 vintage that's making waves

Burgundy winemakers are showing rare optimism. After early but perfectly managed harvests, the wines in barrel show exceptional concentration and purity. Early reports from the Revue du Vin de France describe a vintage that is 'sunny yet fresh', compared to the great 2019 and 2020. Estates along the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune are already offering en primeur tastings for curious visitors.

Wine tourism in Burgundy breaks records

According to figures from the Bureau Interprofessionnel des Vins de Bourgogne (BIVB), wine tourism in the region grew by 12% in 2025. Burgundy now attracts over 5 million visitors annually, a third of them international. This momentum is driven by the UNESCO World Heritage listing of the Climats of the Burgundy vineyards, which continues to shine, and the rise of new immersive wine accommodation formats.

Dijon, capital of Burgundy wine tourism

Long overshadowed by Beaune, Dijon is establishing itself as the ideal starting point for a wine stay in Burgundy. The International City of Gastronomy and Wine, inaugurated in 2022, attracts more visitors each year. The tramway connects the city centre to the Côte de Nuits in just 20 minutes. And the city offers a network of gastronomic restaurants and wine bars among the best in France.

Oenosuite is part of this dynamic, offering a unique concept: accommodation designed for wine lovers, with a connected Jalunia cellar, wine escape game and blind tasting directly in the apartment.

Must-attend events in spring 2026

The Burgundy wine tourism calendar is particularly rich this spring:

March-April: open doors at estates multiply across the entire Côte. It's a unique opportunity to taste the 2025 vintage from barrel, directly at the winery, and discuss this exceptional harvest with the winemakers.

May: the Grands Jours de Bourgogne trade fair, a major industry event, brings together over 500 winemakers. Open to professionals and knowledgeable enthusiasts, it's the unmissable meeting to discover wine events in the region.

June: the Fête de la Vigne et du Vin transforms wine villages into performance stages. Open-air tastings, concerts in the vineyards, night walks… the atmosphere is unique.

How to choose wine accommodation in Burgundy?

Choosing wine accommodation in Burgundy is no longer just about finding a comfortable bed near the vines. Today's travellers seek an immersive experience: sleeping in a place that tells the story of the terroir, tasting curated wines, learning food and wine pairings.

Here are the criteria that make the difference:

Location: choose accommodation in Dijon or Beaune, well connected to the wine routes. Ideally, you should be able to visit estates without long drives.

Integrated wine experience: beyond a simple cellar visit, the best accommodations offer on-site wine activities — tasting, games, connected cellar.

Authenticity: a wine gîte or guest house with character beats a standardised hotel. The décor, materials and atmosphere should breathe Burgundy.

Flexibility: being able to book a wine weekend of 2 nights or a week-long stay, with modular wine activities tailored to your preferences.

Oenosuite: wine accommodation designed for enthusiasts

This is precisely the vision that guided the creation of Oenosuite. Our two suites in Dijon — the Suite Charme & Vin with exposed stone and barrel furniture, and the Suite Loft Artiste with contemporary design — embody a new way to experience wine in Burgundy.

Every stay includes access to the connected Jalunia cellar (wines, craft beers, local products), a digital escape game around the terroir, and blind tasting games. Because wine accommodation in Burgundy should be much more than just a roof over your head.
