The French Wine region of Burgundy (aka “Bourgogne”) may be small in size, but its influence is huge in the world of vino. The complexity of Burgundy can cast fear into the heart of even a seasoned wine pro, but fear not – the region need only be as complicated as you want it to be. Yes, it is home to some of the most expensive wines in the known universe, but there are also tasty and affordable wines.

Main grapes:

Pinot Noir originated in Burgundy and these vines cover 34% of the region, accounting for 29% of overall wine production. The red grape does extremely well in limestone and clay soil, which helps create their complexity. Pinot Noir wines from Burgundy range in colour from cherry to brick, are light in body, and typically have red fruit and spicy flavours. Gamay is a red grape also grown in Burgundy, but only makes up 10% of the vines.

Chardonnay is the primary grape for white wines in Burgundy, making up 48% of the vines and 68% of production. Chardonnay appreciates Burgundy’s marl soil, which gives it delicate floral, fruit, and mineral aromas and full-bodied flavours. Aligoté is the second white grape, accounting for 6% grown. {Read more about the ancient Aligoté grape in Burgundy.}

The region does produce a sparkling wine called Crémant de Bourgogne. It can be made from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Aligoté, Gamay, Sacy, and Melon. Varieties include blanc, blanc de blancs, blanc de noirs, and rosé.

Saint-Aubin is a small village located in the heart of Burgundy, France. The region is known for producing some of the finest white wines in the world, and Saint-Aubin is no exception. The village is situated between the famous appellations of Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet, and the wines produced here share many of the same characteristics as those from these neighbouring regions.

The history of winemaking in Saint-Aubin dates back to the Middle Ages, when the monks of the nearby Abbey of Sainte-Marguerite began cultivating vines in the area. The village was also an important stop on the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela, and many pilgrims would stop here to rest and enjoy the local wines.

Today, Saint-Aubin is home to a number of small, family-owned wineries that produce some of the most sought-after wines in Burgundy. The wines are made from Chardonnay grapes, which are grown on the slopes of the village's hillsides. The soil here is rich in limestone, which gives the wines their characteristic minerality and acidity.

The style of production in Saint-Aubin is traditional, with many winemakers using techniques that have been passed down through generations. The grapes are hand-harvested and sorted, and the wine is fermented in oak barrels. The wines are then aged in oak for up to 18 months, which gives them their complex, layered flavours.

The wines of Saint-Aubin are known for their elegance and finesse. They are typically lighter and more delicate than the wines of neighbouring appellations, with a crisp acidity and a subtle fruitiness. The best examples of Saint-Aubin can age for up to 10 years, developing a rich, honeyed character over time.

In addition to white wine, Saint-Aubin also produces a small amount of red wine from Pinot Noir grapes. These wines are light and fruity, with a delicate tannic structure.

Overall, Saint-Aubin is a hidden gem in the world of Burgundy wine. Its wines are highly sought-after by collectors and connoisseurs, and the village itself is a charming destination for wine lovers looking to explore the region's rich history and culture.
