Burgundy is the spiritual home of many of today's favorite winemaking styles. Steeped in history and prestige, it is the source of some of the most expensive wines in the world. A sprawling collection of tiny winemaking provinces (made up of over 100 different appellations), Burgundy is where the world's premier Chardonnay and Pinot Noir wines originated. Regions and subregions like Pouilly-Fuissé, Vosne-Romanée, Chassagne-Montrachet exude grandeur and opulence. While Burgundy is centered around a hallowed limestone escarpment known as the Côte d'Or, it actually stretches 200 miles, from Chablis just southeast of Paris, down to the Beaujolais plains above Lyon.
