Regional appellation (also Bourgogne Montre-Cul or Bourgogne En Montre-Cul) in Burgundy in the Côte de Beaune area, the southern part of the Côte d'Or. Montrecul means "show me your ass" and refers to the fact that due to the steepness of the slope, the winemakers working in the vineyard can be seen from below "under their coats". This is a vineyard(Lieu-dit or Climat) in Dijon. The area under vines covers 16 hectares. Red wines from Pinot Noir or rosé wines with additional Pinot Gris, as well as white wines from Chardonnay are allowed. See also under Bourgogne and Burgundy Classification.

There is a vast number of sources on the web where one can acquire knowledge about wine. But none has the scope, timeliness and accuracy of the information in the encyclopaedia at wein.plus. I use it regularly and rely on it.
