Two of the most famous wine regions of France bring us some of the best and friendliest wines.

Bordeaux
Certainly the most recognized wine region worldwide. Between the Dordogne and Garonne rivers, in western France. It's named the fourth-largest French city and produces 10% percent of all French wine and 26% of all AOC wine. Bordeaux wines are either white or red. Most people think of the famous, dry reds of Bordeaux. This makes up 83% of all wine produced.

Burgundy
When people think Burgundy they think Red. Burgundy's wines come in white or red. The white wines of Burgundy are generally more expensive than the reds. The Burgundy wine region starts with the Côte-de Nuits south of Dijon, the Côte de Beaune south of Beaune, the Côte Chalonnaise east of Chalon-sur-Saône and the Mâconnais, north of Macon. It also includes wines from Chablis, a smaller wine region east of Dijon. While in Bordeaux the wine makers refer to their properties as a chateau, in Burgundy wine makers call their properties a domaine. Pinot Noir is used for red Burgundy and Chardonnay for white Burgundy. The climate of Burgundy is uniquly suited for the finicky Pinot Noir grape. Beaujolais is part of the Burgundy region and produces great wines with the Gamay grape
