​White Burgundy

White Burgundy wine is a refined and prestigious wine that comes from the beloved Burgundy wine region in France and often comes in the finest wine bottles with a classic label. When this is placed on the table, the tone is immediately set. We are going to enjoy it! What grape is white Burgundy made from? It is almost always made from the rich Chardonnay grape and is known for its elegance, complexity, and unique terroir expression. To some extent, the fresher and less expensive Aligoté grape is also making its presence felt more frequently. However, this style will never reach the level of the richer and rounder Chardonnay grape, unless global warming really takes over. The limestone and clay soils, combined with the cool climate, create an ideal environment for the Chardonnay grape to develop its characteristic flavors. White Burgundy stands out for its vibrant acidity, refined aromas of citrus, peach, honey, vanilla, and toasted nuts, and a subtle mineral touch that plays with the often buttery finish.

Burgundy is an elongated region stretching from Dijon to Mâcon, connected by the Route du Soleil. Due to the diversity of terroirs within the Burgundy wine region, the styles of white Burgundy vary significantly, from the fresh and mineral wine styles of the northwestern Côte Auxerrois (Auxerre wine) or Chablis wine region to the powerful wines from the Côte d'Or wine region (Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits) where wine from Meursault, France is the most famous. But do not forget the juicy richness from the southernmost Mâconnais region (wine villages Saint Véran or Pouilly-Fuissé). In between lies the connecting strength of the centrally located Côte Chalonnaise wine region where wine from Givry and Mercurey reign supreme.
