Burgundy - pure and not simple

Ah, Bougogne, c'est compliqué

Detailed, complex, cerebral, emotional, perfumed, finely woven, expressive.

The particles that form Burgundy have yet to be discovered by the Hadron Collider. They have mass and density and are often, though not always weightless. They are palate-coating but almost invisible. They leave a strong impression - of delicacy. They are hugely popular but not everyone likes them. They're seductively ribald and rabelaisian. They're highbrow and at home in the gutter. They seduce with lacey elegance and pander to your basest instincts.
