Chardonnay
Best known in Burgundy, Champagne, California

The grapes
Pinot Noir
Best known in Burgundy, Oregon, New Zealand
The great red grape of Burgundy. Cherry, raspberry, earthy and floral notes, with silky tannins and fresh acidity. Notoriously hard to grow well, but capable of extraordinary elegance, and a key grape in Champagne and English sparkling wine.
