The Côte de Beaune, located in the southern part of Burgundy, is known for its excellent white and red wines. This wine region stretches from Ladoix-Serrigny to Dezize-lès-Maranges and includes famous villages such as Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, and Chassagne-Montrachet.
The white wines from the Côte de Beaune, mainly made from Chardonnay, are world famous and are known for their richness, complexity and refreshing minerality. They offer aromas of ripe fruit, butter and roasted nuts, often with a long, elegant finish. The red wines, made from Pinot Noir, are refined and expressive, with notes of red and black fruit, earth and spices. They combine strength and elegance, and have excellent ripening potential.
This region produces some of the most prestigious and sought-after wines in the world, offering a wide range of styles that can be enjoyed young or stored for long periods of time.
