The vineyard of the Côte de Beaune occupies, with its 3,000 ha, twice the surface of the Côte de Nuits. Although the Corton vineyard covers 98 hectares planted exclusively with Pinot Noir and is, by its size, the most important of the entire Côte de Beaune, it is in Montrachet, further south, that one finds the most prestigious wines.
The white wine of Corton-Charlemagne, the and the wines of Puligny, Chassagne, and Meursault villages are appreciated by connoisseurs from all over the world; the name of this 50 hectare grand cru, Corton-Charlemagne, reminds us that the emperor reserved the wines of the best plots for his personal consumption...
