Burgundy Red by Montblanc is a part of the luxury goods maison's regular line of inks. As it's name suggests, the ink is inspired by wine and leans toward pink in dryer pens.
The bottle the ink comes in is stunning. Like all of Montblanc's regular inks (not the special edition ones), Burgundy red comes in a stunning, heavy, boot shaped bottle. It's heel acts as an ink reservoir to help fill pens when the ink level drops. If you like to display your inks or keep them on your desk, this is definitely something you should consider even if it is just for the bottle. I recommend against displaying inks even though it looks cool, light exposure can damage the dyes in the ink, causing the colour to change and/or fade.

I really enjoy the colour and since I write on cheap paper frequently (I'm a high school student so it's unavoidable), I can recommend this ink to people who enjoy dry burgundy inks with a great looking bottle and good behavior.
