Burgundy
Deep red wine
Burgundy is a region in eastern France renowned for its wines, particularly Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
The region's winemaking traditions date back centuries, and its wines command premium prices: a bottle of white Burgundy, the vineyards of Burgundy.
Historically, the Duchy of Burgundy was a powerful medieval state. (Lowercase burgundy is the color.)
