A sparkling destination for families and groups to enjoy a wonderful adventure in the world of wine.
Located in the Châtillonnais region in the north of the Côte-d'Or and at the gateway to the Champagne region, we look forward to welcoming you to L'Oenocentre Ampélopsis. We wanted to create a cultural and educational facility dedicated to vines and wine, in a historic site with 18th-century barns and 13th-century wine cellars.
As well as the museography and exhibitions, the focus is strongly on "interpretation". Covering an area of 2,000 m², we offer a cultural, temporal, technical, sensory and fun way of learning about the world of wine, in the form of a discovery tour, enhanced by a strong audio-visual presence and lined with educational workshops to awaken the 5 senses. Set off on an emotional journey of initiation into the world of vines and wine, in an authentic, family-friendly setting.
