Hotels Own Introduction
A Historic Wine Estate in the Heart of Burgundy
Founded in 1112, Château la Commaraine is one of Burgundy’s most remarkable wine estates, where centuries of heritage meet contemporary luxury. Set within the prestigious Pommard Premier Cru appellation, the château is surrounded by its own 8.9-acre Clos Monopole vineyard, cultivated biodynamically to produce some of the region’s most distinguished wines. Combining a historic château with an integrated working winery, the estate offers an immersive experience where the art of winemaking and refined hospitality exist in perfect harmony.
Rooms & Suites
The château features 37 elegant rooms and suites, many overlooking the surrounding vineyards, while one exceptional suite offers a unique view directly into the winery itself. Sophisticated interiors blend timeless French elegance with contemporary comfort, creating tranquil retreats where the beauty of Burgundy’s wine country is ever present.
Wine Experiences
At the heart of Château la Commaraine lies its spectacular winery, seamlessly integrated into the hotel and offering guests an intimate connection to the estate’s biodynamic winemaking. Exclusive cellar visits, guided tastings, vineyard walks, and hands-on experiences alongside the estate’s winemaking team provide a rare opportunity to discover the craftsmanship behind every bottle and experience Burgundy’s celebrated terroir from vine to glass.
Dining
Led by Meilleur Ouvrier de France Christophe Raoux together with Chef Jérôme Rioux, the château’s two restaurants celebrate the richness of Burgundy through refined, seasonal cuisine. Rooted in exceptional local produce, each menu balances culinary tradition with contemporary creativity, delivering elegant dishes that express the character of the region with generosity, precision, and authenticity.
Spa & Wellness
Overlooking the peaceful vineyards, the wellness area offers a serene escape designed for complete relaxation. A heated outdoor swimming pool, jacuzzi, sauna, steam room, and cold bath create a restorative wellness circuit, while three treatment rooms—including a double suite—offer advanced MyBlend face and body rituals that combine expert techniques with innovative skincare technologies.
