4 reasons to choose the Sensation Vin experience

Wine tasting in Beaune: why Sensation Vin offers a truly unique Burgundy experience

Choosing a wine tasting class in the heart of Burgundy can be overwhelming. Between prestigious estates and tourist shops, how do you find an authentic learning experience? At Sensation Vin, we believe that understanding Burgundy wines requires independence, expertise, and a sensory-first approach.
Here is what sets our Beaune tasting room apart.

1. 100% independent expertise 

Unlike many tasting rooms in Beaune, Sensation Vin is not a winery or a merchant. We do not sell bottles for a specific estate.
•    Why it matters for you: our pedagogical approach is entirely objective. When we taste a Grand Cru or a Premier Cru, our only goal is to teach you about the terroir and the winemaker's craft, free from any commercial pressure.

2. A "zero cancellation" guarantee 

We know that your time in France is precious. Since 2006, we have maintained a strict "zero cancellation" policy. Whether you are the only person booked or part of a small group, your session is guaranteed. This reliability has made us a trusted partner for international travelers and luxury travel planners alike.

3. Learn from the founders

At Sensation Vin, there are no seasonal interns or temporary staff. Every session is led by the founders, Céline Dandelot or Damien Delattre. With over 50 years of combined experience in the Burgundy wine industry, we share insights you won't find in textbooks.

4. The magic of blind tasting

To truly understand the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes, one must look past the label. Our signature method focuses on blind tasting.
•    The goal: stripping away the prestige of the label allows your senses to take over. It’s the most honest way to learn about the nuances of the Côte de Beaune, Côte de Nuits and Burgundy wines in general.

Planning your visit? Our tasting room is located in an 18th-century mansion in the centre of Beaune, just a few steps from the Hospices de Beaune. Discover our upcoming dates and availability here.
