I'll drink to that where we get behind the scenes of the beverage business.

I'm Levy Dalton.

I'm Erin Scala and here's our show today. Oh, The real history of Burgundy-Tterwar begins 150 million to 200 million years ago when dinosaurs

roamed the earth. During this time Burgundy lay underwater in a European sea dominated by huge

crocodiles. All the sea creatures that teemed in this Jurassic broth can still be found as fossils in the ancient

limestones of Burgundy. In the Kotinui, the oldest limestones are close

to the surface and in the bone newer more crumbly limestones are close to the surface, and in the bone newer, more crumbly

limestones are closer to the surface. Fast forward several millennium, and we

find ourselves reading the poetry of Henri Dandelli who wrote a poem in 1224 describing a wine competition.

The title of the poem is The Battle of the Wines.

Henri writes a few lines of bone wines,

noting that a wine is best not too yellow.

More it is green than ox horn.

But alas, Bone did not win the ultimate battle of the wines.

The prize went to a sweet wine from Cyprus made from partially dried grapes.

Bone became more famous a little later in the 1300s when the papacy was located in Abignon.

The winds of bone were considered of higher quality than what could be found in Italy at the time.

Later in 1395, found in Italy at the time.

Later in 1395, Philip the Bold,

outlawed Gamei from the Caudor,

which in a way helped to guide the fate of modern day Bojale. During this time period white wine was valued over red by the aristocracy and the high quality whites of Burgundy were popular.

Though they weren't made from Chardonnay, and most were likely similar to what a Pinogui would taste like.
