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.
