Well here are the remains of our tasting party! Our trip to Burgundy included three whites and three reds, along with a typically Burgundian meal of cheese puffs, chilled asparagus, boeuf bourguignon and mashed potatoes, salad, a lovely cheese course with walnut bread, and a chocolate and raspberry trifle for dessert, as well as some chocolate-covered strawberries that everyone was too stuffed to try!A good time was had by all, and although we all were totally confused by the Burgundy classification system, at least we learned that there are only two grape varieties grown in the region: Chardonnay and Pinot Noir!
