Wine Pros Discuss & Taste: BORDEAUX vs BURGUNDY (with Andrew Jefford & Aigars Nords)
Episode 5
Sunday, 28 December, 2025
I sat down with Andrew Jefford (wine writer & columnist) and Aigards Nords (organizer of @RigaWineChampagne ) to discuss one of wine’s great rivalries: Bordeaux vs. Burgundy. We talk why these regions are so often compared, what really separates them in the glass, and how ideas like terroir vs. estate shape the way we talk about them. We also look at the bigger forces behind the bottles - pricing and value, shifting consumer demand vs. wine-list trends and what might be next for both regions.Be sure to check out Andrew Jefford's latest book 📕 Drinking with the Valkyries: https://amzn.to/45mGBOGI highly recommend visiting one of the Riga Wine & Champagne events, organized by Aigars Nords in Riga each year.
