Beaujolais is the southern end of the department of Burgundy, so
geographically it is Burgundy. While other areas in Burgundy but
outside the C=F4te d'Or (C=F4te Chalonnais, M=E2con, Chablis) use the same
grapes as the C=F4te d'Or (please note I know there are a few exceptions-
Grande Ordinaire, Aligote, Passetoutgrains, as well as "sports" such as
Gouges' NSG), the term Burgundy commonly includes them, but Beaujolais
reds are Gamay they're usually in own classification.
