Best Answer

Burgundy wine (French: Bourgogne) is wine made in the Burgundy AOC region of France. Most wine produced here is either red wine made from Pinot Noir grapes or white wine made from Chardonnay grapes, although red and white wines are also made from other grape varieties, such as Gamay and Aligoté respectively. Small amounts of rose and sparkling wine are also produced.

Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Carmenere and Malbec are the six permitted grapes used in Red Bordeaux.

Although Malbec is hardly used today and Carmenere is used in very tiny amounts.

Pinot Noir for reds, Chardonnay for white. Good Burgundy wines are single grape wines. Mixed grape burgundies are considered 'second tier'. For more information follow the link.
