Burgundy

The C'ôte d'Or

Famous for its pinot noir and chardonnay for centuries, Burgundy wines have commanded high prices and still remain the land of small growers. From Chablis in the north, down through the superb c'ôte d'or and to the Macon further south, the region offers pinot noir and chardonnay at their best. Both grapes are vinified pure, unsullied and absent of blending with other varieties.

Although Burgundy has a reputation for expensive wines, many growers offer great wines at competitive prices. Today we visit the C'ôte d'Or and give you a choice of five great affordable wines which we just added to our online collection from this superb region.
