Côte de Beaune


The southern section of the Côte d'Or, extending the Côte de Nuits down to the Maranges. Famed for great Chardonnays such as Montrachet and Corton-Charlemagne, it also yields the slope's only red grand cru, Corton. Its marl-limestone hillsides and varied exposures produce whites of a depth prized by sommeliers across the luxury hospitality sector.
