At the heart of Burgundian tradition
Located in the heart of Burgundy, near Dijon, Bourgogne Escargots passionately continues to showcase the traditional recipes that have contributed to the region’s culinary richness for decades.
Each snail is prepared by hand with the utmost care to pique even the most discerning palates. This Burgundy snail farmer primarily works with the Burgundy snail (Helix pomatia), a wild species harvested exclusively from its natural habitat.
This species has been protected in France since 1979, so it is collected where it is found in abundance, in Central Europe.

Each step of the snail-making process — cooking, shelling, and buttering — is carried out by hand by the Bourgogne Escargots team, respecting traditional methods, at their Chevigny-Saint-Sauveur premises in Burgundy.
As guarantors of quality, their snail farmers meticulously ensure the balance between tasty meat and a stuffing prepared with care and passion.
