CÔTE CHALONNAISE

Côte Chalonnaise VineyardsIf you are looking for the "insider's secret" to Burgundy, the Côte Chalonnaise is exactly where you should start. Sitting just south of the famous Côte d’Or, this region is a natural continuation of the legendary "Golden Slope." It shares the same limestone soils and historic heritage, yet remains the best-value district in the entire region, offering honest, high-quality wines that punch well above their weight.

The region is defined by five key villages, each with a distinct character. For lovers of Pinot Noir, villages like Mercurey and Givry are the stars, producing reds that are bright, "crunchy," and filled with fresh cherry flavours. For those who prefer Chardonnay, the vineyards of Rully and Montagny offer a beautifully balanced style—fresher than the buttery whites of the north, but with plenty of elegant fruit.

The Côte Chalonnaise is also a place for unique discoveries. It is the spiritual home of Crémant de Bourgogne, the region's superb sparkling wine, and houses the village of Bouzeron—the only place in Burgundy where the Aligoté grape is given its own prestigious title. Whether you are looking for a sophisticated fizz, a zesty white, or a silky red for the weekend, this collection proves that you don’t need a famous "Grand Cru" label to enjoy a world-class glass of Burgundy.
