Côte de Beaune

A key wine-producing district of Burgundy in the east of France.

The Côte de Beaune area is the southern part of the Côte d'Or, the limestone ridge that is home to the great names of Burgundy wine. The Côte de Beaune starts between Nuits-Saint-Georges and Beaune, and extends southwards for about 25 km to the river Dheune. The trend of producing red wines continues from the Côte de Nuits to the north, down through Beaune, although the wines become lighter and more perfumed. Farther south lie the great names of white Burgundy such as Meursault and Chassagne-Montrachet.

Product Details

It is in the Côte d’Or, at the heart of winegrowing Burgundy, that the region's most prestigious wines are produced. In order to bring these exceptional terroirs into the spotlight, the additional geographical denomination "Côte d’Or" was created in 2017.

The Bourgogne Côte d’Or wines have stricter production regulations than the Bourgogne wines (lower yields, same density of planting as for village wines, vineyards located exclusively in the Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits).

Our "Secret de Famille" is crafted from a blend of grapes from carefully selected plots from around the Côte de Beaune villages that are celebrated for their great white wines (Saint-Aubin, Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, etc.).

These rich terroirs along with meticulous vinification and ageing result in an expressive, very elegant wine.

Fine nose featuring notes of citrus fruit and white flowers, opening up to hints of honey and dried fruit. The full-flavoured, elegant palate is extremely well balanced, with perfect harmony between roundness and minerality.

"A fuller yellow colour. The sunshine shows a little more than usual on the nose, ripe yellow plum fruit on the palate, a little warmth behind, then good acidity. A touch of toast from the barrel, very good length. This is an avowedly opulent style." Jasper Morris Drink from 2025-2027.
