Grands Jours de Bourgogne 2024 : an event boosted by two gorgeous vintages!

20/11/2023

GJB 2024

Winegrowers and wine merchants are preparing to welcome wine professionals and journalists from all over the world, for the 17th Grands Jours de Bourgogne - the trade show that takes place in the heart of the vineyards - from March 18 to 22, 2024.

Every two years, this unique event brings together people from nearly 50 different countries to immerse themselves in Bourgogne's terroirs. The event is all about sharing, conviviality and discovery, but also about doing business.

Wine sellers, sommeliers, restaurateurs, importers, distributors and journalists will all be there to learn about the latest vintages from Bourgognes's 84 appellations. Over five exceptional days, punctuated by 13 tastings in 10 different venues, 1,000 exhibitors will present 6,000 wines.

Visitors will travel the length and breadth of Bourgogne, from Chablis/Grand Auxerrois (on Monday) to the Côte de Beaune (on Tuesday), via the Mâconnais (on Wednesday), the Côte Chalonnaise (on Thursday), finishing with the Côte de Nuits (on Friday).

Everyone is looking forward to this event, which will be bolstered by the two most recent harvests, which were generous in terms of both volume and quality!

  • How to register and prepare for your visit
