Presentation:

Inaugurated within the framework of the UNESCO Chair "Culture and Traditions of Wine", the Rencontres du Clos-Vougeot have the major objective of understanding wine as a cultural product, a vector of civilization, whose informed consumption is a true art of living and a philosophy linked to conviviality and sharing, humanist values ​​if there ever were one. Dedicated in 2008 to the theme: "Vines, Wine and human adventures", these second meetings brought together international specialists engaged in multidisciplinary reflection on the role of vines and wine in the great movements of expansion and political conquests, economic, religious. Uprooting and socio-cultural rooting are in close connection with the adventures of the "vine vitis" and its exceptional present: wine, the existence of which is attested by testimonies dating back nearly 8,000 years and which we seeks to produce today in a few “extreme vineyards”.
