FRANCE - Saint-Vincent Tournante in Gevrey-Chambertin

From 25/01/2020 to 26/01/2020

The program for the Saint-Vincent Tournante 2020 is unveiled

La Saint-Vincent Tournante, the biggest wine celebration in the Bourgogne winegrowing region, will take place on the weekend of 25-26 January in Gevrey-Chambertin. Since 1947, this festival, which celebrates Saint Vincent, the patron saint of winemakers, has been hosted by a different village every year.

This wonderful weekend begins on the Saturday morning with the parade of banners and statues of Saint Vincent through the village. Each winegrowing village in the Bourgogne region is represented and brings their own figure of Saint Vincent. The procession is marked by an homage at the cenotaph and will finish with a religious ceremony at the church.

Then, the festivities begin! This packed weekend includes performances from folk musicians, street artists, and plenty more across the village. At lunchtime on the Saturday, the wine cellars will open their doors and will be offering tastings of special cuvées from five vintages, namely 2009, 2013, 2014, 2017, and 2018.

The Saint-Vincent Tournante is a unique event in the wine year, and provides and exceptional opportunity to discover the legendary Bourgogne hospitality, to meet producers, and discover the appellation in a different way.
