The appellation named after the commune is located in the Côte de Beaune region of Burgundy. It adjoins the municipality of Volnay. The Cistercians already owned vineyards here in the 12th century. The clergyman Claude Arnoux (1695-1770) described this wine in his famous book "La Situation de la Bourgogne".

Vineyards

The vineyards cover 313 hectares of vines. Almost exclusively red wines are made from Pinot Noir with a proportion of Pinot Liébault (a Pinot Noir clone) and Pinot Gris. There are no Grands Crus.

Premiers Crus

The 30 or so Premiers Crus cover 128 hectares of vineyards. The best include Chanlins, Épenots, Fremiers, Jarolières, Pézerolles and above all Rugiens (actually worthy of a Grand Cru in terms of quality).
