Web Content
The website is run by two individuals with no professional experience in the wine business. They are noted for their niche focus on a single wine region as well as their efforts to modernize the region's image through online tastings, wine video, and communicating on social networking sites.
Role in the Region
Bourgogne Live frequently participates in local Burgundy events and reports on them. Notable examples include their video footage of Les Hospices de Beaune and their promotion of Les Climats de Bourgogne as a candidate for UNESCO's World Heritage status.
