Burgundy White Wine
Burgundy white wine is known for its elegant and pleasant aroma. The region predominantly uses Chardonnay and Aligote grapes. The most famous varietals come from the Con de Beaune appellation. Here are some things that make this wine different and popular:
- Subtle flavor
- Soft structure
- Excellent balance
- Good aging potential
- Made from hand-picked berries
- Not filtered, making them particularly full-bodied
Burgundy white wine has been made since the Middle Ages. Today, the region continues to pick the berries by hand and select them with care. Whole clusters are not pressed, but instead, the berries are separated. After the juice is pressed, it is left to ferment and then aged in various containers.
