The communal appellation is located as an enclave at the southern end of the Mâconnais region in French Burgundy. It should not be confused with the municipality of the same name in Provence. The area is divided by the Pouilly-Fuissé appellation. The vineyards cover over 700 hectares of vines in the eight communes of Chânes, Chasselas, Leynes, Davayé, Prissé, Saint-Amour (one of the Beaujolais Cru communes), Saint-Vérand and Solutré in the department of Saône-et-Loire. The "d" of the eponymous commune of Vérand was omitted from the appellation name so as not to offend the other villages and to gain acceptance.

The Wine lexicon helps me to keep up to date and refresh my knowledge. Thank you for this Lexicon that will never end in terms of topicality! That's what makes it so exciting to come back often.
