Burgundy (Fr: Bourgogne) is a region of west-central France noted for its vineyards and wine production. The Duchy of Burgundy, formerly independent, became part of the French kingdom in 1477, and the Free County of Burgundy (Franche Comte) was only annexed in 1678.
The chief city of Burgundy is Dijon, famed for the production of mustard.
