About Trophée des Bourgognes et des Loires

Le Trophée des Bourgognes is an independent blind tasting competition on the wines of Burgundy created in 2019 by two former students. It gathers domaines from all around Burgundy, as well as students from the most prestigious universities. It takes place at the Chateau de Meursault in the heart of the Côte de Beaune Students are asked to taste and guess a selection of wines based on specific criteria such as vintage, village, appellation, Climat, estate, as well as to answer 60 theoretical questions about the history, the viticulture, and vineyards of Burgundy. The blind tasting is separated into three flights of wine a white flight, a red flight & a mystery flight. We felt that burgundy was an unreachable region and none of the students could ever afford these wines, let alone taste them. We wanted to change this. We wish to break the status quo & demystify this magnificent region. Our aim is to show the diversity & beauty in the soils, the people, & the wine making. While young wine enthusiast learn to appreciate some of the best expressions of Pinot Noir & Chardonnay. The first edition took place in October 2019.
