Burgundy wine
Pinot noir homeland
Burgundy wine comes from the Burgundy region of eastern France, renowned for producing some of the world's most prestigious wines.
Red Burgundy is made from Pinot Noir grapes, white from Chardonnay.
The region's complex classification system—from generic Bourgogne to grand cru vineyards—creates a hierarchy where a single vineyard's output can command extraordinary prices.
A good Burgundy pairs beautifully with duck.
