Just before we go. Wrapping up with some tips & tricks:
🍷 Did You Know?
🍇 Ancient Roots: The vineyards of Burgundy date back over two thousand years, with the Romans planting the first vines in the region. This rich winemaking heritage has been passed down through generations, crafting wines of exceptional quality and character.
🌱 Terroir Divinity: Burgundy’s unique “terroir” is renowned for its influence on the wines. The combination of specific soil types, microclimates, and grape varieties results in distinct expressions of each vineyard, making Burgundy a true tapestry of flavors.
🏰 Côte d’Or Prestige: The Côte d’Or, meaning “golden slope,” is the heart of Burgundy’s wine country. It is divided into the Côte de Nuits in the north and the Côte de Beaune in the south, each producing some of the world’s most coveted Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wines.
✨ Challenging Classification: Unlike many wine regions, Burgundy’s classification system is not based on vineyards or châteaux but rather on individual plots of land called “climats.” This intricate system recognizes and preserves the unique characteristics of each vineyard.
🏞️ Picturesque Landscapes: Burgundy’s idyllic landscapes are adorned with medieval villages, historic châteaux, and sprawling vineyards. The region’s beauty has earned it a place on UNESCO’s list of World Heritage sites.
But now time to go home! Thanks a lot Burgundy, you were great!
