Festive 2 Bottle Burgundy Wine Gift
Treat someone special – or yourself – to the elegance and richness of Burgundy with this Festive 2 Bottle Burgundy Wine Gift. Bringing together a sophisticated white and a refined red from Louis Latour, this set embodies the timeless appeal of Burgundy’s world-class terroirs. It’s perfect for the festive season, whether you’re gifting it or opening it at a special dinner.
- Rully Blanc | Louis Latour | Chardonnay | Côte Chalonnaise, France – This Rully Blanc is a classic expression of Burgundian Chardonnay, combining freshness with depth. Pale yellow with a nose of honeysuckle, vanilla, and marzipan, it opens on the palate with gentle notes of wood, toasted hazelnut, and a mineral finish. A perfect wine for those who appreciate balance and elegance in their whites.
- Nuits-Saint-Georges | Louis Latour | Pinot Noir | Côte de Nuits, France – Known for its robust character, this Nuits-Saint-Georges Pinot Noir is full-bodied and nuanced. The dark garnet colour hints at its intensity, while aromas of blackcurrant, clove, and mocha create a warm, inviting bouquet. The palate reveals ripe blackcurrant and mocha, framed by invigorating yet elegant tannins, with a lingering finish that speaks to the quality of Burgundy’s Pinot Noir.
Each bottle in this gift set captures the essence of its region, offering a rich experience of Burgundy’s famed vineyards. Whether you’re sharing this with loved ones or gifting it to a wine enthusiast, this set brings a touch of sophistication to any occasion.

Becky Says: “A Burgundy Pairing Perfect for Festive Moments”
I chose these wines for the Festive 2 Bottle Burgundy Wine Gift because they bring out the best of Burgundy, each bottle offering something distinctive yet beautifully complementary. For me, the Rully Blanc is a standout white, with its blend of freshness and creamy depth. It’s a Chardonnay that’s both elegant and inviting, making it a lovely option for festive meals or simply savouring on its own.
The Nuits-Saint-Georges Pinot Noir, on the other hand, is a classic Burgundy red – full-bodied with layers of flavour that unfold with each sip. I love how its dark fruit and mocha notes give it a warming quality, making it ideal for those cosy winter evenings. It’s the kind of red that feels indulgent but not overpowering, just right for sharing over good food and good company.
This gift set is a real treat for Burgundy lovers, bringing together two wines that embody the charm and depth of the region. It’s my go-to choice for those looking to make a lasting impression this festive season.
