 A few of the most exciting wines in the world come from Burgundy.
The Burgundy region begins a hundred kilometers south from Paris and spreads itself down to Lyon. It stretches on 360 kilometers (225 miles).
Burgundy is a region with various soils, divided in numerous districts: Chablis, Côte d'Or (divided in Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune), Côte Chalonnaise, Mâconnais and Beaujolais.
Burgundy wines are of a velvety and subtle red or of a sensual and characteristic white.
