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.

Serious sources on the internet are rare - and Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one such source. When researching for my articles, I regularly consult the wein.plus encyclopaedia. There I get reliable and detailed information.
