What exactly is a "Climat" in Burgundy?

The Burgundian "Climats" – celebrated names like Montrachet, Romanée-Conti, Chambertin, Les Cailles… and there are 1 247 of them in the area – are parcels of vines, often rather small tracts of land, with precisely determined boundaries. They were created by natural conditions – soils, sun and wind exposure – combined with the work of the men who shaped them, revea- led their value and organized them into a quality hierarchy, throughout their long history, which began in Roman times.

Great news for Burgundy

There are many sites and monuments which the international community regards as valuable elements of its collective heritage. Elements so precious, that their disappearance or deteriora- tion would surely constitute a loss to civilisation. It was therefore apparent that the area in and around the Côtes de Beaune and the Côtes de Nuits, together with the towns of Beaune and Dijon, should naturally be included on this prestigious List as it too is an area of Outstanding Universal Value. The inherent value here is embedded in the idea of terroir, which in Burgundy is expressed For this reason, the Ministries of Culture and through the "Climats".

4 UPDATE UNESCO application : inscription in 2015 ?

The 39th Session of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee will be held from the 28th June to the 28th July 2015 at the Bonn International Conference Centre (WCCB ; located in the former Bundestag or federal parliament headquarters) in Germany.

During this session, the World Heritage Committee will be reviewing the state of conservation of sites already inscribed on the List and discussing requests for international assistance financed by the World Heritage Fund. The crucial moment for Burgundy will be between the 3rd and 5th of July 2015, when the Committee will review the current requests for the inscription of new sites on the World Heritage List.

Rendez-vous in Bonn this July, for the World Heritage Committee session

Among the 38 international applications to be examined, France will be presenting two dossiers: "The Climats de Bourgogne", in the "cultural sites" category, and "the Vineyard slopes, Houses and Cellars of Champagne" in the "cultural landscapes" category.

The Climats de Bourgogne application dossier is due to be examined between the 3rd and the 5th of July 2015.

The following 21 State parties will be present and taking part in the vote : Algeria, Ger- many, Columbia, Croatia, Finland, India, Jamaica, Japan, Kazakhstan, Lebonan, Ma- laysia, Peru, the Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Qatar, the Republic of Korea, Senegal, Serbia, Turkey, Vietnam.

In the case of Burgundy, following the advisory notice of "referral” issued by ICOMOS, the 21 States can exercise their sovereign right to decide: • Either to convert the advisory referral into an inscription decision ; • Or to refer the application dossier so that the ICOMOS recommendations may be implemented. In this case, the site’s application will be re-submitted for re-examination by the World Heritage Committee within a maximum period of 3 years.

How are the applications reviewed ? Each inscription request is usually examined according to the countries’ alphabetical order (which may vary at any time). Each country can present a maximum of two pro- perties/sites. An ICOMOS or IUCN representative presents a 5-minutes summary for each dossier, followed by his or her recommendation. The request is then submitted to the Committee members for decision. Questions are allowed. However, for the French application dossiers, the only person authorized to reply is Philippe Lalliot, France’s Ambassador to UNESCO.

Above all else, the focus will be on preserving and passing on the Climats’ heritage The fundamental objectives of the candidature have always been protecting, preserving and enhancing the Climats. Thanks to the coordinated efforts of the government departments, the region’s local authorities and the Association, by 2018, 92% of the nominated site’s central zone will be protected by appropriate tools. The Association will be pursuing its on-going projects in the following sectors; town planning, economic development, environmental issues, architecture, mediation and tourism, while taking care to maintain a constant balance between conservation and development.

Benefiting from the positive effects while respecting the authenticity of the site Usually, an inscription of the World Heritage List gives rise to many positive knock-on effects including an increase in tourist traffic (of between 15 and 20%). In order to manage the site based on the principles of sustainable development, a survey of traffic flow across the Climats territory has been carried out. To encourage people to discover and understand the Climats and their history, two mediation centres are expected to be up and running by 2017 : the Cité de la Gastronomie (City of Gastronomy) in Dijon and the Cité des Vins de Bourgogne (Burgundy Wines Centre) in Beaune. Meanwhile, themed itineraries with a historical focus are currently being designed.

What may or may not be changed by UNESCO… Let’s be clear that World Heritage inclusion will not freeze the on-going productivity of the region and turn this economically and agriculturally active site into a "museum". UNESCO will not impose any additional constraints to those already implemented by current legislation. However, world heritage inclusion would require all those involved to assume their share of responsibility, and would call for the implementation of a management plan, which would be reflected in municipal and inter-municipal regulations.

8 The Outstanding Universal Value is the cornerstone of all Unesco heritage applications

In order to obtain inscription on the World Heritage list, a candidate site must provide proof of its « Outstanding Universal Value » (OUV) ; in other words, a cultural heritage of such importance that it extends beyond national borders, spans generations and deser- ves recognition on a worldwide scale.

The Outstanding Universal Value of the Climats of Burgundy Burgundy’s wine region was shaped over « cabottes » (stone huts), cellars, churches, 2,000 years, founded on the concept of villages, towns and monuments, which expressing the identity of geographical make this territory a unique cultural origin.

This carefully constructed and unique vineyard parcel system, which we would like to have inscribed as World Heritage, is the result of ongoing labour and dedication. Throughout the centuries, religious and political institutions, winegrowers and merchants have forged the identity of the Climats and their wines, whose respective characteristics were in turn set in stone by the Appellations d’Origine Contrôlée (AOC) system in 1936.

10 2,000 years of history The origins of the Côte wine region began with a geological fault which appeared over 30 million years ago. This breach forced ancient layers of clay and limestone (dating from around 160 million years ago) up towards the surface, thus creating the unusual contours and mosaic of diverse soils of the Côte.

Medieval wine-growing: the first vineyard parcel boundaries defined (6th century-14th century) At the instigation of the monks (mainly the Benedictines and Cistercians), the first Clos appeared, cultivation and vinification techniques improved and the vines gained ground, as the creation of vast estates encouraged planting on new tracts of land.

Philip the Bold, the Valois Duke of Bur- gundy, laid down the first rules ensuring the quality of the wines. Growers were encouraged to seek out the "bonnes costes" (worthy slopes) rather than the "chetifs lieux" (meagre lands).

The quest for quality and tribute to diversity (14th century-17th century) In the late Middle Ages, the hierarchy of wines was defined in relation to the "wi- Philippe the nes of Beaune" and the "wines of Dijon". It Bold, Valois Duke of was not until the very end of the Middle Burgundy (1342-1404) Ages that the wines began to take on the names of clearly defined places of origin.

The earliest mention of the word "Climats" appeared in texts dating from 1584. The term became widely used during the 17th century. The first accounts refering to the Climats appeared around this time, namely in legal documents like the Tibé- riades de Dijon (1550).

Climats "of Volnay", "of Beaune" and "of Gevrey", etc.). Then, identifiable place names were used (Chambertin and Clos de Bèze in 1676, followed by Montrachet and Romanée).

Vatfuls or batches of wines which expressed a sense of place began to be dif- ferenciated and ranked.

The wine market developed thanks to the liberalization of the economy. In contrast to the wines of Dijon and Beaune, more and more Climats wines were recognised and given a distinct identification, like Chambertin, Clos de Bèze, Corton… etc. and they became more and more expensive.

The Climats vineyards of Burgundy in the 20th century : reconstructing a benchmark model of winegrowing expertise Following the phylloxera crisis (from 1885) and the upheaval it caused, the producers undertook a reorganization programme to guarantee the production origin of the wines. This mobilization resulted in the creation of the appellations d’origine contrôlée system which was established through a series of decrees in 1936.

12 Burgundy’s Côte is the only vineyard in the world to have constantly privileged and protected the identity of its Climats. Climats only exist in Burgundy !

A model of terroir-based viticulture, embodied by an exceptionally precise vineyard parcel system

Nowhere in the world has man shown such determination to so precisely link a wine production to its place of origin. Throughout the centuries, winegrowers have sought to reveal and identify the potential of these diverse Côte terroirs. This explains how two Climats located a few metres apart, within the same appellation may produce two entirely different wines, despite using the same grape variety (Pinot Noir for the reds, Chardonnay for whites). This wide variety of wines has given rise to a meticulous vineyard parcel system. Each and every one of the 1 247 Climats has its own story to tell, its own flavour and place in the hierarchy of appellations.

As the very model of terroir-based viticulture, the Climats are exceptional ; they stand out among the vineyards of the world as a benchmark for other wine-growing regions (for example, Central Otago in New Zealand and Oregon in the USA).

"In defining Central Otago’s own viticultural identity and its path forward, it has been, and will continue to be essential to look towards the classic model of Burgundy and its Climats for inspira- tion and guidance."

Nick Mills, Chairman of the Central Otago Map of the Climats of Winegrowers Association (inc.) Vougeot and Vosne-Romanée, 1948

13 A mosaic of 1247 vineyard parcels

The Côte wine region comprises 1247 Climats, which extend over 8,000 hectares, The average surface area of each parcel of vines varies from between 1 to 20 hectares, Clos de Vougeot being the exception, with almost 50 hectares. The extent of land dedicated to vines varies considerably from one village to another: vine plantations are sometimes very concentrated to the north of villages like Corgoloin, Chateau du Clos de Vougeot Comblanchien,Vougeot and Ladoix-Serrigny and Cellier de often vines surround the urban areas of villages.

14 Chateau du Clos de Vougeot Cellier de An exceptional architectural heritage Clairvaux (Dijon)

Within this cultural setting created by the Climats, the ever-present alchemy which exists between the vines and the built heritage shaped not only the landscape, but also the towns and villages. The underlying limestone of the region provides the material for marking the boundaries and protecting the parcels in the form of meugers (rock piles), clos (enclosures) and dry-stone walls, which punctuate the landscape and trace the contours of this fabulous vineyard mosaic.

Limestone was, and still is, used to build vat houses, storerooms, cellars, growers’ houses and historical monuments like the Hospices de Beaune and the Palais des Etats de Bourgogne in Dijon… These elements are etched in the soil and the landscape, and mark the history of men and their expertise in maintaining and perpetuating a carefully constructed diversity for generations to come.

Clos The origins of the word Clos (or "cloux") date back to the Mid- dle Ages. This describes a plot of vineyard surrounded by stone walls, which were built to protect the vines. These Clos developed under the impetus of the Cistercian abbeys (10th century) and the Clunisian abbeys (11th century).

Dry-stone walls These low walls form an intricate framework which cha- raterizes and underlines the relief and topography of the slopes. They play an essential protective role in preven- ting soil erosion.

CABOTTES (stone-huts) Built in the heart of the vineyard, these traditional stone huts were constructed from piles of rocks and stones collected on site. They are used to store tools or as shelters for winegrowers in bad weather.

Meurgers These are piles of rocks collected from the plots. Meurgers are used to reduce the impact of water runoff and to protect the land from erosion.

15 Saint-Vincent Tournante A vibrant repository of expertise Festival and traditions

The Climats have not only left their imprint on the region’s landscape and architecture. They have significantly marked the lives of an entire community. Today’s wine-making techniques are influenced by ancestoral expertise, even if modern technology has been developed to adapt to this exceptional terroir. Furthermore, traditional festive and economic activities, inherited from past centuries, give a sense of rhythm to local life throughout the seasons.

Hospices de Beaune public wine auction This traditional annual auction, which was first held in 1859, takes place on the third Sunday of November. This charitable institution possesses nearly 60 hectares of vines and has been selling its wines for over 150 years in aid of the charities it supports. The event became public in the late 19th century. The Hospices de Beaune wine auction is the oldest and most celebrated charity wine sale in the world and attracts thousands of visitors from across the globe every year.

16 the Confrérie des Chevaliers du Tastevin This brotherhood or guild was founded in 1934 in Nuits- Saint-Georges by a group of producers led by Georges Fai- veley and Camille Rodier. The Confrérie’s mission is to pro- mote Burgundian products, especially its great wines but also regional gastronomy, customs and traditions as part of Burgundy’s folklore. After World War II, the Confrérie bought Château du Clos de Vougeot. This Cistercian landmark became the guild’s headquarters and host to its famous "chapters". The Confrérie The guild currently has 12,000 "knights" across the world des Chevaliers du Tastevin and is a key initiator and organizer of popular regional events like the Saint-Vincent Tournante festival.

The Saint-Vincent Tournante festival The Saint-Vincent Tournante was launched in 1938. It is a festival organized by winegrowers and mutual aid societies based in Burgundy to celebrate the patron saint of vintners, Saint Vincent and the start of the new wine year. Each year, in late January, the "revolving" festival is held in a different Sculptures of village of the Côte wine region. Saint-Vincent carried by the wine guild Paulée de Meursault members during the the Saint-Vin- cent Tournante "La paulée" is a traditional celebratory banquet marking the festival end of the grape harvest. This festive dinner was offered by vineyard owners to their laborers. In 1923, the tradition was revived by two well-known lan- downers in Meursault, Jules Lafon and Jacques Prieur, who were supported by the town’s tourist information bureau. Since then, la paulée has become an annual event, held on the Monday following the Hospices de Beaune wine auction. Burgundian wine and gastronomy have always been at the heart of this harvest feast. Custom has it that each paulée guest brings one or several bottles of his or her best wine to share with other table companions. La Paulée de Meursault brings together local vintners and their best customers from all over the world. La paulée has now become a popular event duplicated beyond Burgundy’s borders, in many countries including Canada and the USA… The Oenology Research Centre in An ever-expanding culture of scientific and technical research Beaune Burgundy is at the forefront of scientific and technical research focused on wine production and oenology, which continues to increase our knowledge of the Climats and Burgundian vine cultivation. In the wake of the phylloxera crisis, oenology institutes and research centres were opened in Beaune and Dijon. Their common objectives were to find ways to prevent other pandemic outbreaks and to apply a more scientific approach to the study of vine cultivation. During this period, in 1884, the first Lycée Viticole (high school specializing in viticulture) was inau- gurated in Beaune. The school is still operational today and has 19 hectares of vineyard for practical assignments in the field. Currently, Burgundy’s research initiatives and leading institutions include the UNESCO Chair « Wine Culture and Traditions », the Jules Guyot Institute of the Vine and Wine (an experimental centre for viticulture and oenology) and the recently established Pôle Bourgogne Vigne et Vin (Burgundy Vine and Wine Centre), located at the University of Burgundy. . 17 Understanding the perimeter of the site nominated for inscription

All World Heritage application dossiers must provide a precisely defined perimeter and boundaries for the nominated site, which is determined by the scientific advisory committee and the Ministries of Culture and the Environment. This exercise requires a number of important choices to be made, in accordance with stringent criteria in order to meet the OUV standards. The central zone incorpora- tes the main attributes, features and characteristic landmarks of the site. The buffer zone provides a protective landscape setting.

The Climats of Burgundy site is characterized by and built on several fundamental elements, which remain the tangible legacy of its historic construction. They can be defined according to three major themes: • elements linked to wine production • elements linked to wine distribution and markets • elements symbolizing political, cultural and economic impetus

Lyon UNPRECEDENTED MOBILIZATION La Marche des Climats An entire territory (The Walk of supporting the application the Climats, 2011)

The candidature was a revelation in that the idea alone triggered tremendous enthusiasm among our supporters. All of those concerned developed an awareness of the unique quality of the Climats and the necessity to protect and preserve them for future generations.

A unifying project from the very start

The candidature was officially launched in November 2006 by the respective Mayors of Beaune and Dijon, the President of the BIVB (Burgundy Wine Board) and Aubert de Villaine, producer and co-director of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti and President of the current Association. The idea emmanated from a "collective consciousness" which remained a constant throughout the preparation of a project of widespread regional significance.

The Association has been pooling ressources and support from all the major players across the territory since 2007. In 2013, the Association, together with an advisory scientific committee, became part of "Mission Climats", a management body designed to protect, share and pass on the heritage of the Climats site.

All the territory’s stakeholders and decision-makers adhere to this organization. After careful concertation, the "Mission" puts into operation the territorial Mana- gement Plan relative to the candidature. The Mission comprises the Territorial Conference (decision-making body) and its operational arm, the Technical Standing Committee, and finally, the Association des 53 elected representatives Climats which coordinates awareness-rai- signed the sing, public support and information-sha- Territorial Charter, ring about the Climats’ project. 8th April 2011

Climats on the roc (2013)

La Marche des Climats (The Walk of the Climats, 2011)

Over 63,000 people have pledged support for the project

Broad popular commitment behind the application The Support Committee was created in 2011, and is presided over by the author, Bernard Pivot. Since then the number of members has been steadily increasing over the years, revealing the tremendous enthusiasm and popular involvement of an entire region.

Some of the highlights of community commitment include fundamental events like "La Marche des Climats" (The Walk of the Climats) in 2011, when 3,000 people took part in a candelit procession through the vineyards. Followed by: "La Saint-Vincent tournante des Climats" in 2012, "Climats on the roc", which took place in the heart of Comblanchien quarries in 2013, "Climats et moi" (the Climats and I project) in 2014... And of course, "La Semaine des Climats" (Climats Week) which was launched in 2013; a programme of 50 events and interactive activities entirely dedicated to discovering the Climats!

Active involvement of the scientific community Since 2008, 36 scientists have been analysing and demonstrating the Outstanding Universal Value (OUV) of the Climats of Burgundy. Their collective work has given rise to many publications and has led to major advances and discoveries, such as: • the earliest written mention of the term "Climat" in Côte- d’Or dates back to 1584 • the first traces of Gallo-Roman grape farming were un- covered and identified (during archaeological digs carried out in Gevrey-Chambertin between 2008 and 2012). Traces of ancient vines were also found in 2014 (digs in Savigny-lès-Beaune). These were arranged in an as yet unknown and unstudied planting scheme, and possibly as far back as Antiquity or Medieval times.

21 Children are the Climats’ ambassadors of tomorrow Since 2011, a considerable amount of work has been dedicated to sharing information during curricular and extra-curricular activities in schools and leisure centres: so far, we have raised awareness among over 5,000 young people, trained 80 project leaders and work with 1,300 partner educational institutions.

Several educational tools have been specially designed, including: • a booklet for young children, • 5 booklets for teachers and group leaders for primary and secondary school levels, • a classroom kit for primary and secondary levels. These have all been specially adapted to the national education curriculum and approved by the DSDEN (Directorate of Departmental Servi- ces for National Education) and by the Scientific Committee.

Meanwhile, over 50 educational programmes have been launched across the region: workshops in museums, artists’ studios, games at wine pro- perties… etc., All the details about these activities can be found in the booklet "Les Climats de Bourgo- gne expliqués aux enfants" (The Climats explained for Children).

Active involvement of businesses, wine estates and merchants The Climats site is a vibrant community which enjoys an ongoing economic activity. Expertise is developed here, jobs are created and the many tourists attracted to the area are welcomed. The Climats are a source of identity and pride for an entire region. Indeed, their candidature entails recognition of a "living and breathing economy". It was therefore natural to involve the business community in the project from the very beginning. tional and community partners. These include A number of schemes have been launched by our training courses, support campaigns, etc. This in- many ambassadors, thanks to active cooperation centive also prompted the creation of patronage between the local Chamber of Commerce and In- scheme in 2011, which currently finances half of dustry, the wine board representatives, institu- the initiatives piloted by the Association.

22 City of Dijon An ongoing "territorial undertaking" since 2007

Although the World Heritage inscription has not yet been attained, the application in itself has already given rise to positive knock on effects.

Indeed, the local population and the winegrowing community have never been so "proud to be Burgundian" and have already wholeheartedly reclaimed the notion of "Climats".

Protecting and managing the site The Climats of Burgundy site is part of a much broader administrative area, which extends over 5 inter-municipalities and two départements (counties). The application has given rise to an effective coordination, based on sharing expertise and efficient methods. It has also enabled us to put in place a set of suitable regulatory tools. The candidature has prompted a collective awareness of the need to protect and preserve the tangible assets of "a shared heritage", which is reflected in both the landscape and the architecture. World Heritage inclusion would provide new momentum to our mo- tivation to manage the site.

A project set to "generate added value" to the territory The World Heritage candidature has already created considerable dynamic commitment among those involved in the project, namely in the areas of scientific research, mediation and tourism. For example, significant advances have been made in terms of research and discovery in the field of vine cultivation and wine-making since preparation of the dossier began in 2008. Numerous themed exhibitions have been organized in the following centres: the Natural History Museum of Dijon, MSH, the Museum of Burgundy Wine in Beaune, the Museum of Nuits-Saint-Georges… etc.

Concerning tourism, several cross-cutting projects have been put in place, like the Greeters network (enthusiastic volunteers offering personalized guided tours), the development of interconnected modes of transport, and the launch of mobile applications for self-guided vineyard walks and heritage discovery tours. This collective incentive has increased the territory’s appeal. This was illustrated by Burgundy’s inclusion in the New York Times’s ranking of the top 20 must-see world destinations in late 2014.

23 Meanwhile, the inventories which have been carried out have improved our knowledge of the local rural heritage buildings. Thanks to the launch of Fonds Climats (Climats Fund), a support fund has been set up to finance renovation work on dry-stone walls, cabottes (huts) and churches… etc.

Finally, the project has enjoyed unprecedented support from the business sector, in terms of both financial backing and representation, through a network of ambassadors, designed to spread awareness of the notion of Climats and inform the public about the application.

"Culture has an important socio-economic dimension" explains Jean-Pascal Vendeville, Director of Kurt Salmon, the strategy and development consul- tancy firm specialized in Culture and Tourism. "Cultural projects provide a rich source of enhancements to improve the image of a region. They have an increasingly significant impact on the economy in terms of creating job opportunities, reinforcing social ties and links between the private and public sectors. Culture enhances the quality of life; this undoubtedly adds to the appeal of a region from the point of view of a company’s employees and their clients". "an investment of 0.70 euro of public money actually generates 9 euros of economic spinoff per inhabitant."

Benoit de Charette, President of CCIR points out that "there is a great deal at stake for the region, and the effects will go well beyond the winegrowing sector and tourist industry."

24 Meeting up to sign a memoran- dum during our discovery of Tie An influential model in touch with Guan Yin d'Anxi teas in China and the world the Jasmin teas of Fuzhou (July 2014) Many lovers of Burgundy from other countries pledged their support for the Climats of Burgundy candidature from the very start. They represent over 8% of the support committee members!

Meanwhile, there has been ongoing consultation and cooperation with other players who are also aware of the benefits of discussing ideas and sharing information – a concept encouraged by Unesco - and of the universality of the notion of terroir.

Ambitious exchanges and cooperationS From one end of the planet to the other, whatever the product, language or terminology involved, the same concept of “terroir” exists, as does the resolve to preserve the diversity that is being expressed. This common culture brings together, beyond borders, the people who keep these economies alive. The intercultural exchange programmes we have launched with Fujian in China (tea), the Cape vineyards of South Africa The vineyards of (landscape identity) and the Central Otago wine region of New Stellenbosch (South Africa) Zealand, are all based on the « terroir » principle. They provide opportunities to share experiences and expertise.

The international conference in February 2015 has given rise to invested discussions and debates In keeping with this same approach, an international conference was organized in Fe- bruary 2015 on the subject of « the heritage value of terroir-based economies as mo- dels of human development ». 23 speakers from 17 different countries contributed to global considerations and perspectives, by examining the synergies between preserving terroir and the financial benefits stemming from production, but also the social, cultural, environmental and non-economic benefits, which are too often overlooked and not evaluated. Wha- tever the production, be it wine, coffee, tea, rice, pepper, ylang-ylang, common lines of action were drawn from the discussions which we will pursue together in the future.

This certainly provided an incentive to continue along these lines over the next few years.
