Just before Christmas we wrote about the applications of Burgundy and Champagne to be the French candidate for the 2012 UNESCO world cultural heritage. The happy winner was announced a few weeks ago and it was Burgundy.
Together with the other winner, La Grotte orné Chauvet-Pont d’Arc, with cave paintings that are 35 000 years old, the Côte d’Or of Burgundy, Les Climats de Bourgogne, will be presented to the UNESCO committee later this year.
