General G l Inform mation  Introductio I on Thin nk about Frrance. Villages nested in i pretty vaalleys, steeples of mediieval churcches pointin ng out to thee bluee sky, tradittional food fairs, green n hilly vineeyards, rich food and d of course, its prestigious wines. Burrgundy has it all, as yoou are abou ut to discovver! Ideally located at the t crossroaad of Westeern Europe, Burgundy has pplayed a huuge part in the t future o f France sin nce the Gallic times. A Add to this a sum up off all the French ““clichés” annd “raisons d’être”, d no w wonder it iss called the cradle of F France. For several cennturies, the fame and power of tthe Duchy of Burgundy broughtt wealth to the region. Now wadays, its amazing architectura a al heritagee can still be b seen everywhere ass the numerrous typicall Burgundy tiledd roofs testiify. Burgundy regionaal gastronomy has also o spread allll over the country c andd even n behind itss borders with w well-ap ppreciated ddishes such as beef bou urguignon, coq au vin n, and muchh morre. Burgunddy is also reenowned forr breeding tthe weirdest food one can think oof: snails! But B the famee of th he region has also beenn made by its i world-cllass wines, usually pro oduced in sm mall quantiities such ass Nuitts Saint-Geoorges, Pomm mard, Merccurey, Meurrsault and many m more. The walking hoolidays we designed d fo or you aim tto bring you u through th he heart of tthis incredib ble area andd to enjoy the wiide variety of landscap pes, architeccture, food, and of cou urse wines, B Burgundy has h to offer. The city of Beeaune is hoome to Fran nce’s finestt medieval hospital (L Les Hospicees de Beau une) but thee surrrounding viillages havee nothing to t be asham med of. Ind deed, villag ges like Poommard, Gevrey G andd Meu ursault willl seduce yoou not only y with theirr tortuous streets bordeered by stoone built ho ouses, food d marrkets, and cafés but thhey will allso ravish yyour palatess with theirr tannic Pinnots Noirs, refreshingg Cha ardonnay, or even thee local “Kir” aperitif, a regional blackcurrant cream m mixed with local whitee “alig goté” wine.. Over the days, d the chaarms of the different laandscapes will w bewitchh you and viisitors oftenn see their heart sank at the time of dep parture. Donn’t worry; we w are sure the memorries of walk king throughh this giant-size postcard addded to som me wine shoopping willl comfort yo ou in many w ways!

Burgu undy Wine W

The fine winess of Burgunndy and Bo ordeaux couuld not be further apart in terms of what "m makes them m tick". Whilst B Bordeaux is dominated d by large eestates each h producing g a classic rred wine, Burgundy B iss com mposed of thhousands off small-scalle growers, often with h only tiny parcels p of lland, who may m make a rang ge of a dozeen or more different wines, w both red and wh hite. In Bord deaux, almoost all winee is labelledd Mis en Bouteillle au Châteeau which means m the w whole proccess, from growing g thee grapes to bottling thee wine, is carried out by thhe Château u. Whilst thhere are maany similar producers in Burgun ndy (usuallyy referred to as ""domaines" rather than n "châteaux""), a very significant part p of the pproduction comes c from m négo ociants: meerchants who may own no vineyarrds, but who o buy grapees and finishhed wines for f blendingg and bottling unnder their ow wn label.

 Geographyy and climatte The Burgundy region lies a couple of hundred m miles east and a north off Bordeaux.. It covers a large area, the vineyards v rrunning in a long, thin line from A Auxerre in the t north to Lyon in the he south. Th he climate iss conttinental, witth cold winters, hot sum mmers but pplenty of raain. It is easiest to thinkk of Burgun ndy in termss of itts distinct reegions. Runnning from north n to souuth, these arre: Chablis by y far the m most northerlly of Burgu undy's regioons, known exclusivelyy for dry white wines. The Côtee de Nuits home of the great red Burgunndies. Som me white iss produced are thee region n's glory. too, reds but the The Côte de Beaunee known for both red and white w wines, but the greatestt white Burgundies B (other than Chablis) are fro om here. The Côte Chalonnaisse generally y regarded as a a lesser ddistrict. It still producess some extremely e fine wines, both rred and d white. The Mâco onnais the southern lim mit of Burg gundy. Winnes tend to be cheaperr and made for f drinkingg young butt can be excellent valuee. Beaujolaiss (not show wn) is quitte a bit furrther southh. Though not part off Burgundy, it is usuallyy included when w we talk about thee region.

 Grapes The great Burggundies, botth red and white, w are un un-blended wines w madee from a sinngle grape variety. v Thiss agaiin is a maajor differeence from Bordeaux. The grapees used are: Pinot N Noir (red wines) andd Cha ardonnay (w white winess) Various other ggrape varieties are perrmitted withhin Burgundy, though these are nnever used in the greatt " rank nk" of grapees. They willl appear inn budget lev vel bottlingss wines and can be considerred as the "second mon the fu urther southh you travell into the Côte C Chalonnnaise, Mâcconnais andd and are increassingly comm Beaaujolais. Varrieties incluude: Gamay y (red winess) and Aligo oté, Pinot Blanc B (whitee wines) A n Contrôléee areas  Appellation Burgundy is diivided into many, man ny different appellation ns. Often th hese are tinyy, sometim mes coveringg only y a single vvineyard. Thhis, along with w a ratheer complicaated system for namingg wines, caan make thee regiion seem quuite difficullt to understand for thee Burgundy y beginner. Like Bordeeaux, there is a qualityy hierrarchy. Partlly, this is gooverned by Appellatio ns that coveer tighter an nd tighter ggeographical areas. Thee main n geographhical unit off Burgundy is the villagge. The orig ginal wine villages v gavve their nam mes to manyy of th he wines as we will seee. But let's look l at the A Appellation ns in ascendiing order off quality: AC Bourgogn ne covers alll of Burgun ndy. Just liike AC Borrdeaux, it is a genericc AC that covers c thosee wines that don't qualify forr a higher leevel of classsification.

Rég gional Appeellations coover groupss of villagess, such as AC A Côte de Nuits-Villaages. These are usuallyy good quality wines that doon't qualify for f the nextt rung up the ladder, ind dividual villlage AC's. Villlage ACs ssuch as AC Pommard or AC Gevvrey-Chamb bertin are commonly c know wn as "villlage wines". Bottles laabelled as ccoming from m a particullar village shou uld be of qquite high quality q though they wi ll usually be b blends frrom many diffe ferent vineyaards. Thee Village Prremiers Crrus are from m particularlly good vin neyards surrrounding a villaage. A winne labelled AC Chasssagne-Montr trachet Premier Cru should s be sign nificantly beetter than AC A Chassa agne-Montraachet. Thesse wines arre usually blen nded from vvarious smalller individu ual Premierr Cru vineyaards. Individual Vin neyard Premiers Cruss come from m superior vineyards, v th he name off which is sh hown on thee labeel: Chassagn gne-Montracchet Premieer Cru Cham mpgains forr example. These winees should bee extremelyy fine and worth the consideerable moneey they cost . Gra ands Crus are the élitee of Burgun ndy. These wines com me from the very best slop pes and the llabel will bear only thee name of thhe vineyard d, not the name of any villaage. Exampples include:: Musigny, Montrachet M t, Echézeauxx. These wiines - both red and white - cost a smalll fortune bu ut should bee the epitom me of fine wine. w Ofteen the 1er oor Grand Crru sites are shared by many grow wers, the lan nd divided into small parcels owned by b each. A dozen diffeerent produccers might each e make an Echézeaux E G Grand Cru,, for examp ple. Other siites are Mon nopoles, wh hich is the who ole Cru is ow wned by onne domaine, like La Tâcche Grand Cru, C owned d solely by Dom maine de la Romanée-C Conti.  Domaine D or Négocian nt bottled? The tradition oof négociannts in Burgu undy is as old as Burg gundy itself. Négociannts play a vital v role inn takin ng the grappes and som metimes fin nished winees from smaall estates to t produce wines whicch they cann marrket on a coommerciallyy viable scaale. Their roole can rang ge from sim mple labelliing and disttribution, too carrrying out thhe entire wine-makin w ng process. Négociantts may sup pply wines at all quaality levels, inclu uding Grannd Cru. Man ny négociannts are also vineyard owners, o prodducing dom maine bottled wines aloongside theiir négociantt botttlings. The llarger housees are generrally very reeliable and their wines widely avaailable. Look for Jadot,, Dro ouhin, Bouchhard, Louiss Latour and d Faiveley aamongst oth hers.

 Terroir! - T The war-cryy of Burgun ndy vers in terrroir. Terroir is a Frencch word wiithout a dirrect Englishh The Burgundiaans are the great believ tran nslation. It is applied too specific viineyard sitees. Roughly y translated, it means thhe combinaation of soil, clim mate, aspectt to the sun and geograaphy which believers maintain m is a fundamenntal, definin ng influencee on a finished w wine. It would w be eassy to dismisss the Burgu undian adheerence to terrroir as littlee more thann self-interest, but theree are growing nuumbers of believers b am mongst New w World wiine-makers too. It is c ertainly tru ue that theree can be markedd differences between two t wines, made from m grapes grown in adjooining field ds.

Burgundy you will find Grand G Cru vineyards, with 20 yaards away, vineyards that are deesignated too prod duce simplee regional wines. w This is i all down tto terroir. 

The greatt red wines

The Pinot Noiir seems haappiest on the t cool lim mestone slo opes of Bu urgundy, find ding only lim mited succeess when planted p elsew where in th he world. The T area lies on the edgee of the quaality wine-m making zonee. The Pinot Noirr is also a fickle f grapee and is easyy to over-crop. These factors, alon ng with the question off terroir an nd the vast rrange of wiines and domaines, meaan that chooosing red Buurgundy hass to be donee carefully. The Côte de Nuuits (whichh together with w the Côtee de Beaun ne are known as the Côtee d'Or, or ""Golden Sloopes") is th he home of the great reed Burgund dies and the vast majority of Grands and Premiers P C Crus. Here too are some of Burgundy's moost famous villages such as Geevrey-Chambertin and VosneRom manée. y wine from m this regioon will be expensive e bbut all should be of go ood quality. The winess from eachh Any villaage area haave their ow wn charactter: sturdy, tannic and d long-lived d from arouund Nuits-St-Georges, aristtocratic, richh and compplex from Vosne-Roma V anée for exaample. Furtther south thhe Côte de Beaune is most m famouus for its wh hites, but there are veryy good, reliable, sturdyy Pino ots Noirs. T They might lack the finesse of thhe best Côtee de Nuits, but they arre also a little cheaper. Corrton is the oonly red Graand Cru of the Côte dee Beaune, whilst w Pomm mard is proobably the most m widelyy know wn red of thhe region, made m just so outh of the ccity of Beau une. 

The greatt white winees

wn very succcessfully all a over the world. w As a Chaardonnay haas, of coursee, been grow variiety it is reelatively eassy to grow and toleraant of a wide variety of soil andd clim matic conditiions. ablis Cha By far f the mostt northerly area of Burrgundy, Chaablis lies alm most half-w way betweenn the Côte d'Or aand Paris. Itt is home to o one of thee world's beest known Chardonnay C y wines which sshould be steely s and dry with fflavours off lemon and minerals.. Trad ditionally Chablis is un-oaked d, setting it apart from fr most other topp Chaardonnays frrom Burgunndy and elseewhere. There are 4 quaality levels for f Chablis,, each with its own AC C: AC Petit P Chabllis Arg guably not trrue Chablis at all, from m grapes groown on the outskirts o of the area. U Usually fresh h and pleaasant, but raarely showinng the true character c off Chablis. Chaablis proper consists off:

AC Chablis AC Chablis Preemier Cru esp. e Fourchaume, Monntmains, Mo ontée de Ton nnerre AC Chablis Grrands Cru It iss a consisteent area, so most Chab blis is goodd - look outt for wines made by a huge co-o operative off grow wers calledd La Chabliisienne - unlike u somee other co-o operative wines, w thesee offer good value forr mon ney.  The Côte dde Beaune C Chardonnay from here is i quite diffferent from Chablis. It iss generally aged in oak k barrels annd the fruit is usually riper giving much m fullerr, rounder w wines. The best b known viillages of the area include Meursault, PulignyM Montrachet and a Chassag gne-Montraachet. A As elsewherre in Burg gundy, quallity and prrices vary drramatically.. The winess at Premierr Cru level and above shhould be nuutty, buttery and toasty,, but with raacy acidity annd often hinnts of unussual mineraal and stony y flavours. U Unusually, these t are white winnes that caan reward ceellaring for between 5 and a 15 yearrs.

 The Minor regions Agaain, as with Bordeaux there t are maany excellennt wines avaailable from m out with thhese great regions. r Thee Côtee Chalonnaaise has manny fine mid d-range redss which hav ve good, strrawberry fruuit and willl keep for 5 yearrs or so. Toop villages include i Merrcurey, Givvry and Rullly. Look forr the wines from the Co-operative C e at Buxy B - very rreliable. The Mâconnaiss is better known k for itts Chardonnnay whites which are fresh f and saappy with honeysuckle h e arom mas. The toop wines coome from Pouilly-Fuisssé and St-V Véran, thoug gh wines lab abelled Mâccon-Villagess or Mâcon-Lugn M ny should coome from th he better vinneyards, aree reliable an nd should bee quite cheaap. Beaaujolais can range from m the light, hopefully h frresh and fru uity wines of Beaujolaiis Nouveau to the moree serio ous wines oof the Beauj ujolais-Villaages. The beest 10 Villaages have th heir own AC Cs and ofteen the namee "Beaujolais" ddoesn't appeear on the label. Thesse wines arre known as a the "Cruus": Brouillly, Chénas,, Chirroubles, Fleeurie, Morggon, St-Amo our, Côte dee Brouilly, Moulin-à-Ve M ent, Réginiéé, Juliénas.
