Discovery and learning
Exhibitions, conferences, etc. 1,700 m² are devoted to the gastronomic meal of the French and the Climats des vignobles de Bourgogne. S-Pass and Abaque were responsible for designing and managing these areas, located in the gastronomy pavilion and the chapel.
For international training in French cuisine and pastry making, 750 m² of teaching space is available to accommodate 110 students from the Ferrandi school. A 70 m² area for introductions to wine tasting is open to locals and tourists alike.
The new building housing part of these premises was designed by architects Anthony Béchu, in association with A.-C. Perrot & F. Richard.
