Travel with us to Burgundy
Welcome to our Burgundy wine webshop, where we take you on a journey to discover wines from affordable Burgundy wineries and unravel the secrets of the lesser-known corners of Burgundy.

From our new home base and future B&B Wisperhof, we now offer our Burgundy wine discoveries, which we hope find their way into your wine climate cabinet or straight to your table, as our wine selection is generally ready to drink right away.

Step into the heart of France, where Burgundy is not only a haven for wine lovers but also a paradise for travelers. This enchanting region stretches from the vibrant city of Dijon in the north to the sunny Mâcon in the south, where the landscape gradually blends into the captivating world of Beaujolais. Between the iconic cities of Beaune and Mâcon, in the beloved department of Saône-et-Loire, winds the famous Autoroute du Soleil, a route as beloved as it is notorious among travelers. It’s the ideal stopover on your way south. A stop in Burgundy on your journey to the south is truly a must. Let yourself be enchanted by the Burgundy French cuisine and taste the delightful wines this region is rich in. Fortunately, you don’t have to travel far to enjoy all that Burgundy has to offer.

We seek out Burgundy wines that are unpretentious, yet of high quality, allowing us to feel elevated without paying exorbitant prices. With a focus on wines that are ready to enjoy, affordable, and sustainably produced by small winemakers. Burgundy is not just wine, it’s an experience, an attitude, a reflection of life! It mirrors the diversity and complexity of the region, where each village, vineyard, and winemaker has its own unique style and character. Burgundy wine is for those who appreciate quality, authenticity, and elegance. It’s for those who want to discover the nuances and subtleties of different terroirs and vintages—both good and lesser years. It’s for those who love to pair wine with French classics like Boeuf Bourguignon, Oeufs en Meurette, or simply enjoy it with a cheese platter! Taste the refreshing mineral acidity that provides a beautiful tension to the well-known roundness of an oak-aged Chardonnay and the luxurious finish Burgundy is known for.

Where can you find affordable Burgundy wine?
At Bourgognewijn.shop, of course! Yes, the prices in Burgundy are absurd, but not entirely incomprehensible. Aside from the excellent quality, the supply simply can't keep up with the ever-growing demand. Our focus, however, is on discovering niche wines from affordable Burgundy wineries in the lesser-known corners of this remarkable wine region. We’ve also developed a keen eye for interesting, affordable alternatives from well-known producers, such as Burgundy Blancs from Denis Carré, Aurore Bachelet, and René Lequin-Colin. The rolling hills and perfect soil conditions contribute to the highest quality wines, and while we work with just a few grape varieties—Chardonnay, Aligoté, Pinot Noir, and Gamay—no two wines are the same. Of course, there are similarities, but it's the subtle differences that help you connect with the signature of the winemaker. Together, we uncover the hidden treasures of Burgundy, searching for parallels to the most expensive Burgundy wines, but from affordable Burgundy wineries, without making massive compromises. We’d call it the smart choice for the savvy Burgundy drinker.
Discover the Mâconnais wine region
Sensational white Burgundy wines are now coming from the Mâconnais. Here, they currently offer great tension at very competitive prices compared to the northern part of Burgundy. Know that with us, you can expect the most "Terroir per Euro" in your glass! The Mâconnais is located to the west and northwest of the city of Mâcon, along the banks of the Saône River. The region spans an area of about 50 kilometers long and 15 kilometers wide. The landscape is characterized by parallel ridges that stretch from north to south. To the south, the Mâconnais borders the Beaujolais wine region. While the famous Côte d'Or has only one slope, the Mâconnais has many different mineral soils and exposures. This varied nature makes the Mâconnais, with its wide range of aspects, not only a source of very different and complex wine styles but also a haven, should the climate continue to warm.
