Testimonials
Hear what past students have to say about Chasing Burgundy
This has been a wonderful overview of Burgundy that works for the beginner to more experienced burgundy lovers. I was excited to have several of my team members enroll because they range from new to burgundy and a bit more experienced. We were all were stimulated by this and appreciative of its presentation. Thank you for presenting it in such a thoughtful manner!
As a Master of Wine student, I have a strong understanding of Burgundy. But these courses really enhanced my understanding of each sub-region, how classic wines should taste, and especially how quality and vintage plays such an important role in understanding Burgundy. Very few people can describe wine like Mary Margaret, especially Burgundy, so it was really helpful and enjoyable to learn through these classes. Thank you!
I’ve been working in the wine industry for over 30 years, and I adore Burgundy. It is a challenging subject to understand, though, even after many years. Mary Margaret makes a daunting subject fun, approachable, but also was able to enhance my knowledge and inspire me to drink more Burgundy!
As a person with very, very limited wine knowledge, I never felt like I couldn't follow your classes or like I didn't "belong". That is largely due to your compelling teaching style. I was impressed not only be the level of mastery of the subject of wine and burgundy, but particularly by how kind, thoughtful and inclusive you are. This is how wine should be: approachable, inclusive, and fun!
