- Cat - 02-27-1999 Could you please tell me about these types of wines: Bourgogne,Riversaltes, and Monbazillac moelleux. Thank You! - Bucko - 02-28-1999 Bourgogne are wines from Burgundy, made from Pinot Noir or Chardonnay. Riversaltes are fortified dessert wines made from Muscat, Grenache and/or Malvoisie grapes. Monbazillac wines are sweet wines from the Dordogne region, made from Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc grapes. Moelleux is just a French term that roughly means off-dry. Bucko |
