Le Charlemagne
The restaurant offers a clear and zen decor, with a breathtaking panoramic view of the Pernand-Vergelesses vineyards and the Corton hill.
Laurent Peugeot is a craftsman of flavours and a technician at the service of detail; he invites his guests to a culinary crossbreeding, between Burgundy and Japanese influences, to a mixture of flavours, textures and cultures.
For an immersive experience, close to the team, Le Charlemagne invites you to dine "on the other side of the mirror" by choosing one of the guest tables in the kitchen. For more intimacy, the Petit Salon is at your disposal for your lunches, dinners with family, friends, seminars...
On the terrace: the silence, the softness of Burgundy and the light on the vine alongside the bamboo.
