| Résumé : | Wine tourism is growing in importance in many European wineregions, reflecting broader trends of rural change. The past decadein the C^ote d’Or in Burgundy, a traditional and highly-reputedwine region, has seen changing demand from visitors for tourismexperiences, and local actors have responded in various ways.Our objective of is to consider those changes and the responsesof the wine tourism stakeholders in the context of recent debatesregarding rural restructuring in the ‘global countryside’, and specificallythe notion of a ‘progressive sense of place’ To addressthese issues, 26 semi-structured interviews with stakeholdersexplored their activities, their rationale for involvement, and theirlevel of engagement with the tourism industry. The researchengaged with wine and tourism providers as well as publicauthorities, and investigated the perspectives of French nativesand more recent newcomers. The findings expose tensions intheir understanding of their place in the world around ‘us’ andthe ‘other’ and the need to reflect a long and place-specific history.They also present a distinctive local mindset – a ‘peasantmentality’ which in turn produces contradictions between theneed to remain authentic yet become increasingly professional.These varying pressures have not evolved in a uniform fashionbut as a response to a series of local and non-local contingencies.The study places these stresses in a particular local context butthe findings highlight a wider issue for wine tourism research;regional wine tourism occurs at the nexus of global and placespecificcontingencies, meaning substantial spatial, historical, andcultural influences may preclude easy generalisations about winetourism experiences around the world.| |
