Again, thanks for all the suggestions.
Wouldn't say costs are a non-factor, but for transportation itself it really isn't.
After perusing other areas of this France board I was hoping there would be more suggestions for spending time in Burgundy as one of the better places to spend a couple of days along this route.
More of a Bordeaux fan myself. Having said that, some of the best wines I have ever tasted have been Burgundies. Just been burned too many times to go to these wines more often. Wife is a pinot noir fan too. Thinking maybe it is time to spend a couple of days there and get educated on them.
Kind of leaning towards Burgundy region at this point.
