de Bourgogne) January 30. - 31. 1999
Every Year in a weekend around February 1. one of the app. 30 small villages in the Bourgogne district around Chablis is the host of a wine-feast called Saint Vincent Tournante. The Year of 1999's feast which everyone had great expectations for, was held in the city of Chablis. - It was marvellous how the whole village was dressed for party, parading, and everyone in the village were participating. - And not the least: Wine was served for free in the streets. |
