1st time visit: paris-normandy-burgundy possible?

My husband and I are planning to visit France for the first time in September.

Our neccessities in this trip are: good food, good wine, beautiful architecture (chateaux, churches) and just plain beautiful countryside/landscape.

We figure we'd fly into Paris, stay about 3 nights (i realize it's not nearly enough…for the Louvre itself!), and then travel to Normandy for a couple of nights to see the beaches and experience the villages, and then down to Burgundy for the food and wine.

I'm not sure of the travel times in between the 3 areas. Is it do-able in a 10 day span?

Knowing what we want, do you have other suggestions? We were looking at the Dordogne region in lieu of Burgundy, but felt it may be too far south.

Any advice and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
