Collection: Burgundy

Wine from Bourgogne ranges from red Pinot Noir to white Chardonnay, with major differences between the individual appellations and vintages. At Copenhagen Wine you can explore wines from Volnay, Meursault, Gevrey-Chambertin and Nuits-Saint-Georges, among others. The selection allows you to choose both by grape and by the place the wine comes from.

Bourgogne is an entire wine region in eastern France. It comprises Chablis and Grand Auxerrois, Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune, Côte Chalonnaise and Mâconnais. Côte Chalonnaise is thus one part of Bourgogne. The name Bourgogne on a wine can also be a regional appellation, while for instance Volnay and Meursault indicate a more specific geographical origin.

For red Bourgogne, Pinot Noir is the natural starting point. The grape can give wines with red berries, freshness and a tannin structure that varies with growing site and vinification. Feel free to compare wines from different communes if you want to examine how the same grape changes character. At the same time, read the individual wine description, as the appellation alone does not tell the whole story about the taste.

For white Bourgogne, Chardonnay is the central grape. Here you can explore Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet, among others. Oak use and maturation help shape the individual wine, so it is worth looking at both vintage and description when you choose. The region also grows other grapes, including Aligoté.

On the labels you will encounter regional appellations, commune appellations, Premier Cru and Grand Cru. The designations help you understand the wine's origin, but they do not replace your own choice of style. Begin with the colour and the flavour profile you enjoy. Then use the appellation and the vintage to compare the bottles in the selection, whether you are looking for wine for a meal or wish to get to know Bourgogne better.
