Frequently Asked Questions

Burgundy is home to some of the most prestigious wines in the world. Among the great red grands crus, Chambertin, Musigny, and Romanée-Conti stand at the pinnacle of the hierarchy, sourced from exceptional plots in the Côte de Nuits. On the white side, Montrachet and Corton-Charlemagne represent the absolute excellence of Chardonnay. These grand cru appellations represent only 1.5% of total Burgundy production, which explains their rare character and worldwide reputation.

Aging potential varies depending on the appellation level and the vintage. A regional Bourgogne is generally best enjoyed within 3 to 5 years of the harvest. A premier cru can be cellared for 8 to 15 years, depending on the producer and the vintage. Grand crus, on the other hand, can age for several decades: some Gevrey-Chambertin or Chambolle-Musigny reach their peak after 20 to 30 years in the cellar. Sunny vintages such as 2015, 2019, and 2020 generally offer better aging potential thanks to their fine concentration of tannins and natural acidity.

The Burgundy hierarchy is one of the most precise in the world. A premier cru designates an identified plot or named site whose name may appear on the label alongside that of the village, such as Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses. The grand cru represents the supreme level: the plot is so renowned that it stands alone as an appellation, without mention of the village. Thus, one simply says Musigny or Bâtard-Montrachet. In Burgundy, there are 33 grand cru appellations and several hundred premiers crus, located primarily on the Côte d'Or and in Chablis.

Burgundy rests on a philosophy of grape variety simplicity: two main varieties dominate the entire vineyard. Pinot Noir reigns supreme for red wines, offering fine, elegant wines of great aromatic complexity. Chardonnay asserts itself for the whites, capable of expressing both the sharp minerality of Chablis and the buttery roundness of the great whites of the Côte de Beaune. This concentration on two noble grape varieties is a worldwide singularity: where other regions blend several varieties, Burgundy puts everything into the pure expression of terroir through a single grape variety.

Burgundy Pinot Noir is one of the most gastronomic grape varieties there is, thanks to its finesse and natural acidity. It pairs wonderfully with beef bourguignon, the quintessential regional pairing, roasted poultry such as Bresse chicken, duck with cherries, and soft-rind cheeses like Époisses and Soumaintrain. For younger, fruitier wines, fine charcuterie and terrines also make excellent companions. Slow-cooked, patiently simmered dishes remain the royal road to showcasing a fine red Burgundy.

A red Burgundy is ideally served between 14°C and 16°C. At this temperature, Pinot Noir reveals the full finesse of its aromas: cherry, raspberry, violet, and truffle depending on the age of the wine. Too warm, it appears heavy and alcoholic; too cold, it closes up and loses aromatic expression. For a white Burgundy, a temperature of 11°C to 13°C is recommended to balance freshness and complexity. It is advisable to remove bottles from the refrigerator about twenty minutes before serving.

The History of Burgundy’s Vineyards 

The history of Burgundy wines dates back to Roman times, when the first vines were planted. In the Middle Ages, the monks of Cîteaux Abbey contributed greatly to the development of Burgundy viticulture through new grape-growing and winemaking techniques.

In the 17th century, the Burgundy wine trade grew considerably, thanks in particular to the expansion of maritime trade. Fine Burgundy wines, highly prized by the nobility, were exported to England, Russia and other European countries.

In the 19th century, Burgundy faced an economic crisis caused in part by the devastation of phylloxera and growing competition from wines from other regions. Burgundy winemakers responded by changing their methods—reducing yields and improving winemaking techniques—to focus on producing wines of the highest quality. This new strategy gave rise to the classification of Burgundy’s climats, more commonly known today as the Burgundy wine appellation pyramid.

In the 20th century, as Burgundy wines continued to gain renown, the wines in the Burgundy pyramid received their corresponding AOC designations (appellations d’origine contrôlée) in 1936, one year after the system was created.

Today, Burgundy wines have an established reputation: many consider them among the world’s finest, with a wide variety of styles reflecting the diversity of the climats and terroirs of this complex and fascinating region.

The Burgundy Wine Appellation Pyramid

Burgundy’s vineyards form a vast mosaic of thousands of plots (known here as climats), often small in size (Romanée Conti is the world’s smallest appellation at 0.8 hectares), reflecting widely varied geological origins and soil compositions, often within a single named site. The soils are mainly sedimentary, consisting of clay, marl and limestone deposited 150 million years ago during the Jurassic period over an even older substratum.

To make these terroirs easier for everyone to understand, Burgundy took the visionary step of creating a hierarchical appellation system in the 19th century, known as the Burgundy wine pyramid. This Burgundy appellation pyramid has four tiers, each representing an increasing level of quality, complexity, and distinctiveness.

Here are the four tiers of Burgundy’s appellation pyramid, from the broadest and most accessible to the most specific and prestigious: 

- Regional appellations: This first tier includes regional-appellation wines that can be produced throughout the region and are often considered Burgundy’s most accessible and straightforward wines. Examples include "AOC Bourgogne" and "AOC Bourgogne Aligoté".

- Village appellations: This second tier includes village-appellation wines such as AOC Chablis, AOC Pommard, AOC Meursault, AOC Vosne Romanée, AOC Chambolle Musigny and the famous AOC Gevrey Chambertin. Produced within their respective villages’ appellation areas, these wines offer more distinctive characteristics than regional wines.

- Burgundy Premier Cru appellations: This third tier includes Burgundy Premier Cru appellation wines such as AOC Chablis Premier Cru, AOC Beaune Premier Cru and AOC Volnay Premier Cru. These wines are produced on specific climats within village-appellation vineyards and are thus considered to offer higher quality.

- Burgundy Grand Cru appellations: Finally, this highest tier is the most prestigious, encompassing Burgundy Grand Cru appellations such as AOC Chablis Grand Cru, AOC Cotorn Charlemagne, AOC Chambertin, AOC Montrachet, AOC Clos Vougeot, AOC Richebourg, AOC Clos de la Roche, AOC Clos Saint Denis, and AOC Romanée Saint Vivant. These great Burgundy wines come from the region’s most prestigious climats and are considered among its finest wines, thanks to their exceptional quality and complexity.

The Burgundy appellation pyramid is a complex, hierarchical system that helps wine lovers understand the quality, distinctive character, and origins of Burgundy wines. However, it is worth noting that some winemakers also produce wines without a specific appellation that can offer excellent quality and value for money.

Burgundy Wine Grape Varieties 

Burgundy’s main wine grapes are Pinot Noir for its red wines, producing wines that can be light and elegant or powerful and full-bodied depending on the vineyard plot, and Chardonnay for its white wines, producing great dry, aromatic, full-bodied wines. Other varieties play a smaller role in Burgundy’s vineyards: Aligoté, fresh and lively with citrus notes; and Gamay, a red grape that thrives primarily on the granite soils of Beaujolais and southern Burgundy and is used notably in the AOC Côteaux Bourguignons appellation.

Burgundy Wine Subregions, from North to South

Burgundy’s vineyards cover 30,000 hectares, distributed as follows: 6,000 hectares in the Yonne (for Chablis wines), 8,000 in the Maconnais, 6,000 in the Côte Chalonnaise and 10,000 in the Côte d’Or (including the Côte de Nuits and the Côte de Beaune).

Burgundy Wines from Chablis

Chablis is Burgundy’s northernmost wine-producing subregion, renowned for its great dry, mineral Chardonnay white wines. Chablis wines are fresh and mineral, a distinctive character shaped by Kimmeridgian limestone soils and a cooler climate. There are Chablis Grand Cru wines and Chablis Premier Cru wines. Chablis is home to renowned producers such as Francois Raveneau, Vincent Dauvissat, and William Fevre. 

Burgundy wines from the Côte de Nuits 

The Côte de Nuits is the northern part of the Côte d’Or, which also includes the Côte de Beaune. It is primarily known for its Pinot Noir red wines. Wines from the Côte de Nuits are generally described as elegant, refined, complex and aromatic. Their distinctive character comes from the region’s limestone and clay-limestone soils, as well as its climate. The best-known Côte de Nuits appellations, from north to south, are Marsannay, Fixin, Gevrey Chambertin, Morey Saint Denis, Chambolle Musigny, Vougeot, Vosne Romanée and Nuits Saint Georges. Discover the Côte de Nuits’ leading producers below in the Best Burgundy Wines section.

Burgundy Wines from the Côte de Beaune 

The Côte de Beaune is the southern part of the Côte d’Or, which also includes the Côte de Nuits. The Côte de Beaune is particularly renowned for its Chardonnay white wines, unlike the Côte de Nuits, thanks to the region’s limestone soils. It also produces red wines in the vineyard’s areas with more clay-limestone soils. White Burgundy wines from the Côte de Beaune are often rich, complex, and aromatic. Its red Burgundy wines tend to be refined, elegant, and delicate.

The Best Burgundy Wines

Burgundy is a wine region famous for the quality of its wines, some of which are considered among the world’s most prestigious. Here are some of Burgundy’s most renowned Grand Cru appellations:

Corton wines are often tannic when young, but patience allows them to develop the fine structure and great complexity that are so characteristic of them as they age.

These wines are highly sought after, and their prices generally reflect strong demand from enthusiasts. But many other excellent Burgundy wines also deserve to be discovered and enjoyed.

Food and Wine Pairings 

Burgundy wines can be paired with a wide variety of dishes, from simple fare to more elaborate preparations. Here are some food and wine pairing ideas for Burgundy wines, organized by type of dish:

For the aperitif, start with a crisp, mineral wine to awaken your guests’ palates: a Chablis, a Bourgogne Aligoté, or a Crémant de Bourgogne will pair perfectly with appetizers, spreads, oysters, and seafood.

For a starter, step up to a more complex white Burgundy, such as a Chablis Grand Cru, or a wine from the Côte de Beaune, such as a Meursault or Puligny Montrachet. These pair well with fish, seafood and vegetable starters, quiches and terrines, as well as grilled fish.

Pair fish in cream sauce, or even white meat or poultry in sauce, with a white wine such as a fine wine from Meursault, the Grand Cru Montrachet or a Corton Charlemagne. With red meat, Burgundy reds—particularly Gevrey-Chambertin, Nuits-Saint-Georges and Pommard—pair well with red meat, game and poultry in sauce.

For cheese, generally choose white Burgundy wines, such as Meursault and Corton Charlemagne, which pair well with hard cheeses. You can, however, pair red Burgundy wines with soft cheeses, particularly Époisses, Cîteaux and Langres.

For dessert, return to a Crémant de Bourgogne alongside a cream and fruit tart, or bring out a fine red wine such as a Pommard with a chocolate fondant.
