After the episode on the white wines of Burgundy, we’ll now take you on a trip through the Côte d’Or to find some of the best red wines in the world. These wines are made of Pinot Noir, an ancient native grape variety. The grape is only a few generations removed from the wild vines that grew naturally in the area. We’ll explain the importance of terroir and the classification levels, including an overview of the Premier and Grand Crus.
In our experiment we dive deeper into soils.
