点评:We took the self guided tour with a tasting at the end. The cellars are extensive, however extremely repetitive. We had a tasting of three of their whites, the meresault was very good, the sully and gris were very watery and bland.
We tried to taste the reds (the reason for our visit), however the four sommeliers wouldn't leave a French group to attend to us, so we left without tasting. Which pretty much sums up our visit to Burgundy anyway.
The wines are of very low quality, and fairly tasteless; and honestly, it appears it's all the same in Burgundy anyway.
The entire region is a tourist trap. I would never visit again. By the way;
We visited three other towns in the. Burgundy Wine Refion, (including Beaune and Dijon), while in Burgundy. It was all similar. Food was mediocre and not well prepared, wines are ridiculously overpriced ($75 bottle and up), and customer service was basically non-existent.
In my opinion, other than the history of the region, better wines and service can be had in Napa or Sonoma.
But if you insist on visiting Europe, for great wine, great food, history and hospitality, go to Italy.
Of course, there are those that believe French wine and food are the best in the world. So I would say Patriarche and Burgundy is for you.
After visiting Spain, Portugal, Italy and France several times, France is at the bottom of the list in gastronomy and wine as far as I'm concerned.
But opinions are subjective.
Happy travels.
翻译:我们参加了自助游,最后还品尝了葡萄酒。酒窖规模很大,但酒款极其重复。我们品尝了三种白葡萄酒,梅拉索(Meresault)很不错,苏利(Sully)和灰皮诺(Gris)则非常寡淡无味。
我们想品尝红葡萄酒(这也是我们此行的目的),但四位侍酒师始终不肯离开接待我们的法国游客,所以我们只好空手而归。这大概就是我们此次勃艮第之行的全部体验了。
这里的葡萄酒品质很差,味道也相当淡;说实话,勃艮第的葡萄酒似乎都大同小异。
整个勃艮第地区简直就是个旅游陷阱。我绝不会再去第二次。顺便一提:
我们在勃艮第期间还去了勃艮第葡萄酒产区的其他三个城镇(包括博讷和第戎)。感觉都差不多。食物平庸,烹饪也不精良;葡萄酒价格离谱(75美元一瓶起);服务更是形同虚设。
在我看来,除了当地的历史底蕴之外,纳帕谷或索诺玛的葡萄酒和服务都比这里好得多。
但如果你非要去欧洲,想要品尝美酒佳肴,感受历史底蕴和热情好客,那就去意大利吧。
当然,也有人认为法国的葡萄酒和美食是世界上最好的。所以,我建议你去帕特里亚切酒庄,体验勃艮第的风土人情。
我去过西班牙、葡萄牙、意大利和法国好几次,就我个人而言,法国的美食和葡萄酒都排在最后。
不过,个人观点难免带有主观性。
祝您旅途愉快!
