{"id":36611,"count":36,"description":"Burgundy wines often competes with Bordeaux for the title of being the most prestigious wine region in France. Geographically it is a large region which covers the Chablis wines in the north. In the south of the town of Dijon we then find the exclusive and world famous wines from C\u00f4tes-de-Nuits where Domaine Roman\u00e9e-Conti has become famous for being the world's most exclusive and above all expensive wine.\r\n\r\nWe continue further south to the C\u00f4tes de Beaune and then C\u00f4tes Chalonnaise. Far to the south, on the border of Beaujolais, we find Macon, which primarily has made its reputation from its gorgeous white Chardonnay wines. Very generally, we can say that in the northern part of the district, from the city of Dijon the production has been specialized on red wine. Then, the further south you go, the more the part of white wines becomes important, especially when you have passed the C\u00f4tes de Beaune and reached down to the C\u00f4tes Chalonnaise and M\u00e2con. One could also say that the more fullbodied red wines in the north become lighter and fruitier the more south you go.\u00a0<strong>In total, the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Burgundy\">Burgundy<\/a>\u00a0wine region covers 38,000 ha of vineyards.<\/strong>\r\n\r\nIt is thus a major wine region to the surface, but what is especially characteristic of Burgundy is that the vineyards are divided into very small parcels. This division can sometimes seem like pure mosaic when land, which has passed down to new heirs over the years, has led to that a seemingly complete viticulture has become divided into several different winegrowers.\r\n\r\nThe taste variation is considerable between the Burgundy wines and this despite the fact that most of the production only uses four different grape varieties. Pinot Noir and Gamay for the reds and then Chardonnay and Aligot\u00e9 to the whites. Actually you can limit these 4 varieties to only 2 since Gamay is used primarily in the light and fruity wines of Beaujolais. Aligot\u00e9 is also back on the march since the grape itself, has a high acidity and is not nearly as aromatic as Chardonnay. The Aligot\u00e9 wines are primarily used to make Kir. Kir was mayor of Dijon and the aperitif mixing black currant liqueur with white Aligot\u00e9 wine has been named after him. If you want to make a real Kir, you should therefore use Aligot\u00e9 wine. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ivinio.com\/en\/product\/domaine-colbois-bourgogne-chitry-red\/\">Pinot Noir<\/a>\u00a0and Chardonnay, both grape varieties which have had great success around the world have both their origins in Burgundy where these varietals have been cultivated since more than 2000 years.","link":"https:\/\/www.ivinio.com\/en\/product-category\/french-wines\/en-burgundy\/","name":"Burgundy","slug":"en-burgundy","taxonomy":"product_cat","parent":36587,"meta":[],"menu_order":0,"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Buy Burgundy wines - IVINIO Wine Shop<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Buy Burgundy wines.
