Burgundy wine (France:
Bourgogne or Vin de Bourgogne) is wine made in the Burgundy region in
eastern France. The most famous wines produced here - those commonly
referred to as Burgundies - are red wines made from Pinot Noir grapes
or white wines made from Chardonnay grapes. Red and white wines are
also made from other grape varieties, such as Gamay and Aligoté
respectively. Small amounts of rosé and sparkling wine are also
produced in the region. Chardonnay-dominated Chablis and Gamay-dominated
Beaujolais are formally part of Burgundy wine region, but wines from
those subregions are usually referred to by their own names rather
than as "Burgundy wines". Burgundy has a higher number of Appellation d'origine contrôlées (AOCs) than any other French region, and is often seen as the most terroir-conscious of the French wine regions. The various Burgundy AOCs are classified from carefully delineated Grand Cru vineyards down to more non-specific regional appellations. The practice of delineating vineyards by their terroir in Burgundy go back to Medieval times, when various monasteries played a key role in developing the Burgundy wine industry. |
