Short for Burgundy , a red or white
wine produced in the French region of Burgundy. Red wines are usually made from Pinot noir, white wines from Chardonnay, but the wines rarely
bear the grape designation, rather the name of their origin.
In wine circles the abbrevation BURG is quite common. Sometimes the term is also used for wines made from Burgundian grapes (Pinot noir etc.) grown in other countries.
