Leading wine supplier in Philippines discusses wine related topics About Burgundy Wine in Philippines Names: Burgundy, France
A funny thing happened to the name of this region (and its sub region Chablis) in the United States. It was used to mean generic jug wines, and too many people still associate the name with low quality wines. The truth is quite the opposite, this is one of the greatest regions in France.
Burgundy has a deserved reputation as well: It is difficult to learn. The many vineyards and subtle distinctions can make even the most confident wine lover, weak in the knees. It is expensive, almost always, and worth the price only occasionally, and great only rarely. When it is great though, Burgundy is my favorite wine in the world.
Cool with a long growing region, this difficult region is home to the equally difficult red wine grape Pinot Noir. The wines from Burgundy range from very rich and intense reds in the north, to lighter reds and heavy whites in the middle and light whites and few reds in the south.
Grapes
Pinot Noir for Reds.
Chardonnay for whites.
Sub Regions
In the north we have the region of Cote d’Or and the south the Maconnaise. There is also the exceptional white wine region of Chablis far to the north west, and unattached to the rest of Burgundy.
The Cote d’Or is further divided into the northern Cote de Nuits, primarily reds, and the Cote de Beaune with its famous whites and lighter reds.
