A stone's throw away from Beaune
Located in the epicenter of the Clos de Vougeot vineyard, off the famous Rue de la Montagne, the newly redesigned LA FOLIE residence offers enchanting views of the Chateau du Clos de Vougeot, and famous vineyards from its wraparound balcony and its one of a kind 360 degree tower.
With many of Burgundy’s main attractions and most important vineyards within a short distance, including superb shopping destinations and impressive cultural and heritage sites, LA FOLIE provides guests with the perfect place from which to explore the beauty and charm of the Cote d’Or.
The Bourgogne experience has been created over thousands of years with its main foundation developing to produce many internationally renowned wines. Originally planted during Roman times, the region’s vines were refined and curated by the monks, most importantly of Chateau du Clos de Vougeot, and the dukes of Bourgogne for hundreds of years. The Burgundy région continuously evolved following the French Revolution and had hundreds of books written by vignerons, négociants, and scholars about its history, trials and tribulations, and it’s immense impact on wine and food in France.
As part of LA FOLIE’s commitment to preserving it’s history, and that of the Clos de Vougeot and the Burgundy region, we have amassed the largest private collection of books and literature on Burgundy wine and food. This site contains synopsis’s of over 75 of the most fascinating works from these important pieces of Burgundy history.
Today, we help to preserve this important knowledge of Bourgogne by donating this impressive collection to the historical division of the regions most important library. The unique stories of Bourgogne and it’s development as a key wine reference, created by the efforts of those men and women who work the vines and make the wine, remains available for all future generations both online and in print.
See the magic of La Folie
Today, LA FOLIE’S restored interiors reflect an illustrious history. Delicately restored 1890’s oak accents, original floor mosaics, velvets and hand-embroidered silks set a palatial scene. French wall mouldings and features inspired by the Art Nouveau movement sit alongside stained glass family coats of arms of the LA FOLIE owners.
The grand tower, ancient dining tapestry, restored oak work, and a personal soaking bath overlooking the vineyards are the jewels in the crown of a residence that’s made for romance and entertaining.
