The Heart of Burgundy

1,081 MEGAPIXEL VAST PHOTO
Belissand Beaune Premier Cru, Beaune, Côte-d'Or, France

In the heart of Burgundy lies Beaune, the center of wine production and business in this famous wine region of France. My visit to Burgundy in June 2023 was all too short but even shorter was the opportunity I would have to create a VAST ultra-high-resolution photo of the incredible vineyards this area is known for.

Creating VAST ultra-high-resolution photos takes considerable time to plan, set up, and especially shoot (oh, yes, and countless hours of post-production work as well). In between other engagements in the region, I knew I would only have two hours to pull off a VAST ultra-high-resolution image in Burgundy. After researching where I would be when the opportunity presented itself to slip away and photograph, I decided that the Belissand Beaune Premier Cru vineyard was a good starting point. From various satellite images and street views, I could tell the vineyard had vine rows running in the direction I wanted and more importantly, had a traditional tile-roofed stone building that I could use as a focal point. I was not sure I had made the right decision but after a short 20-minute walk from the center of Beaune, I was happy to see that my research had paid off and the location was perfect for the image I had in mind.

For Burgundy wine lovers, this photo includes the vineyards of many Premier Crus. In the immediate foreground, is, as mentioned, Belissand. Beyond that is Les Avaux and Champs Pimont. To the right is Les Renversées, Le Clos de la Mousse, Les Seure, La Mignotte, Les Teurons, Aux Cras and Aux Coucherias. To the left is Les Tuvilains, Clos Landry, Pertuisots and Les Aigrots. In the wide version of this photograph, to the right, the tall spire of Domaine Albert Morot can be seen.

Interestingly, as I was photographing this scene, I saw a great number of people cycling through the vineyards. A little post-visit research revealed that where I was standing was just meters away from the start of The Vineyard Trail Beaune Santenay, a 22 km (14 mile) cycle path that runs through some of Burgundy’s most famous wine villages and prestigious vineyards: Beaune, Pommard, Volnay, Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet and Santenay. If you have ever taken this popular dream ride between dry-stone walls and famous vineyards, you would have started your ride exactly where this photo was taken. The stone pillars at the route’s entrance that are inscribed with “PORTE DES AVAUX VELOROUTE LA VOIE DES VIGNES” are to the right and just out of frame.

VAST Print™

A VAST Print™ represents the pinnacle of the photographic medium. Each print is a true photograph created specifically for you using light-sensitive paper exposed in a darkroom with the industry's highest precision exposure technique. Your print is then sealed with a shine-enhancing protective glossy coating*, adhered to a sturdy aluminum composite backing, and finished in one of two ready-to-hang formats:

  • Frameless floating display: A hidden mounting brace on the rear gracefully "floats" the print off the wall for a sleek, modern look.
  • Framed display: The print is mounted inside one of our handcrafted 100% wood frames with a decorative separation between the print and the frame so that the print appears to be floating within the frame, providing depth and elegance to the finished photo.

*Note: a non-glossy, satin matte coating is alternatively available on request.
