Frequently asked questions about Burgundy wines

What is the difference between a premier cru and a grand cru in Burgundy?

The grand cru is the top of the hierarchy and accounts for around 1% of regional production. Its name appears alone on the label, without the village. The premier cru sits just below and combines the village name with that of the climat.

Why are Burgundy wines so expensive?

The surfaces are tiny. Montrachet covers under 8 hectares in production, against several dozen for a Bordeaux chateau. A very small supply against international demand mechanically pushes prices up.

What is a climat in Burgundy?

A climat is a precisely delimited parcel of vines, with its own name and characteristics. The Climats of the Burgundy vineyard have been on the UNESCO World Heritage list since 2015.

Which grape varieties are grown in Burgundy?

Pinot Noir for the reds and Chardonnay for the whites make up most of the vineyard. Aligote completes the range in white, notably at Bouzeron.

How long should you keep a Burgundy?

Allow three to eight years for a regional or village wine, five to fifteen for a premier cru, and considerably longer for a grand cru in a fine vintage.
