Nestled between Ladoix-Serrigny in the North and the Maranges hillsides of the South, the Côte de Beaune wine growing region covers just 20km – yet this gently undulating landscape, benefiting from a continental climate, is home to world-class appellations. The region produces long-lived Pinot Noirs from recognised names like Henri Boillot's Volnay and Comte Armand's Pommard and Chardonnays like Carillon’s Puligny-Montrachet or Roulot’s Meursault. At the pinnacle of the Grand Cru whites are wines such as Ponsot’s Corton-Charlemagne and DRC’s “Le Montrachet”. Facing the morning sun, these vineyards are never more than a few hundred metres wide. Yet each plot has its own unique terroir.
