The Côte d'Or is the region of Burgundy where the greatest wines are made. The red-brown color of the vine leaves in autumn is the origin of the name "Côte d'Or". Benefiting from an ideal exposure allowing them to benefit from the rays of the rising sun, the vines are also protected by the presence of the Morvan massif.
The Côte d'Or is divided into two parts: the Côte de Beaune, essentially renowned for its white wines but also for its red Corton, and the Côte de Nuits producing essentially red wines considered as the masters of elegance.
