    Marroon? I'd say 'Bordeaux' (because 'Bourgogne' / Burgundy sounds less fitting with Marignac).
    Pleasant names: compliments!

    Thank you about the names. Yes, good point about Burgundy, I won't use that term, but in English the traditional term for wines from Bordeaux (and their colour) is "claret," and I don't think this is really a claret colour. Perhaps I will default to "crimson!"
