Burgundy Wines Classification
Burgundy wines are one of the most hardest to source due to their very limited supply. The main reason Burgundy wines are low in production is because wine makers share plots of land or several vineyards make up a domaine. Therefore there is limited space to produce a high yield. This of course commands very high prices, especially when there is bad weather and an even lower yield than normal is produced. To achieve a lower return but with less risk, these wines have been selected for you.
