Chasing Burgundy was founded in 2024 by Master of Wine Mary Margaret McCamic. Its aim is simple: to provide a gateway into the beautiful world of Burgundy utilizing the most powerful tool we have — education. A region filled with so much complexity, history, prestige and mystique can surely only ever be chased, as there is no end to the journey of learning. Thus the name: Chasing Burgundy.

Chasing Burgundy’s educational series combines Mary Margaret's two areas of expertise and passion: teaching and Burgundy’s captivating wines. It also aims to be concise, approachable, and relevant to Burgundy in today’s world. In addition to becoming a Master of Wine in 2016, Mary Margaret holds a Master of Arts in Teaching from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Together with over 16 years in the wine business, including over ten years importing and selling Burgundy, regular trips to the region, and countless bottles of Burgundy, Mary Margaret is thrilled to guide you through the mystique and majesty of this famed region whether you are a novice, seasoned collector, or trade professional.

Each class in the series includes a list of wines to purchase and enjoy during or before the class, a live virtual session with Mary Margaret, and suggestions for further drinking after you have completed your class. Recordings will be made available after each class. You may enroll in the entire series, which includes Deep Dives into the sub-regions, villages, and vineyards of Burgundy along with Collector’s Lounge classes designed to touch on broader subjects like vintage, quality, collecting strategy, and beyond. Classes begin on April 7th, 2024 and are available for enrollment now.
