This mark of excellence pays tribute to both the quality of the wines and the savoir faire that went into making them. In 2020 there were twelve majors, selected from among 1,140 tasteviné Bourgogne wines.
From 6.30pm till 8.00pm on January 22nd, live from the Château du Clos de Vougeot, the story of how these wines were made, along with their particular characteristics, will be described and explained by Vincent Barbier, Grand Maître of the Confrérie des Chevaliers du Tastevin, and Intendant Général Arnaud Orsel, with contributions and comments from the prize-winning winegrowers direct from their own cellars.

The box, priced at 75€, comprises eleven miniatures containing samples of the 2020 Majors (eleven, and not twelve, because the Crémant de Bourgogne would unfortunately lose its bubbles as a sample) – five white and six red Bourgogne Premier Cru appellations. With this box, you will be able to join the prize-winning winegrowers in an interactive online presentation of all the 2020 Majors on the 22nd of January, the day on which vignerons celebrate their patron Saint Vincent.
In this way 200 privileged wine lovers will be able to participate in this innovative event organized by the Confrérie des Chevaliers du Tastevin.
