There are as many aligotés as there are areas in Burgundy where they are made: in Pernand, they are supple and Fruity; in the Hautes-Côtes, they are fresh and lively; finally, those of Bouzeron have acquired a distinct appellation.

Burgundy has a Complex and comprehensive appellation system; counting Premier Cru and Grand Cru titles, the region has over 700 appellation titles for its wines.

A standard Burgundy wine may be made from grapes grown in one or more of Burgundy's 300 communes.
