Important details from the source

• COMO Hotels and Resorts’ founder Christina Ong and her long-time friend and collaborator Paola Navone of Milan-based Otto Studio, talk about their latest project: COMO Le Montrachet in Burgundy.
• They discuss the balance to be found between grace and playfulness, discretion and surprise, traditional craft and contemporary design.
• I remember arriving here and seeing Puligny-Montrachet’s square for the first time — the Place des Marronniers.
• I had this feeling of clarity – the simple, grand simplicity of the shape.
• It wasn’t higgledy-piggledy, like the squares you find in other French villages, but open, almost minimalist, and full of warm French light.
• The ‘Côte d’Or’, or ‘Gold Coast’, is another name for this narrow strip of land south of Dijon.
• The name is in fact an abbreviation of ‘Côte d’Orient’, or ‘eastern slope’.
• Viticulture has been practised here since the Middle Ages, ever since the Cistercian monks of Cluny Abbey first got a taste for Burgundy wine.
• The idea of something golden, evolved from stony ground.
• In Old French, ‘Montrachet’ means ‘bald mountain’.
