Chateau de Gilly Information
Description
Château de Gilly stands in grandeur in the heart of Burgundy's Grands Cru between Dijon and Beaune. Indeed, its history and its presence are the very essence of the region. Its austere 14th century Cistercian origins contrast with the ornamental style of the 17th century to provide a palatial moated residence standing in formal "à la Française" gardens.The estate includes several historic buildings displaying centuries of superb craftsmanship. One such is the stone-vaulted cellar, now the restaurant, which is linked by tunnel to the main building. The cuisine and the wines are a gastronomic experience never to be forgotten - a worthy tribute to Burgundian culture.As one would expect, the hotel arranges a variety of cultural tours in the footsteps of St Vincent (patron saint of winemakers) but there are also many other colourful events that exploit the dramatic features of this fascinating property.
