The vines of the Bourgogne Côte d’Or appellation extend across an area 65km long and between 1-2km wide, from Dijon to the Maranges. Geographically speaking, the Côte d’Or covers the Côte de Beaune and the Côte de Nuits. The climate is temperate; hot and dry. The vines mostly face southeast on the foothills of the Côte, on soils made up of ancient alluvium: Clay scree and colluvium, clay silt and gravel at the ends of the combs. The white wines are pale yellow gold in color with silvery greenish-yellow hues. The nose offers hints of lemon, pear, and almond, along with acacia and hawthorn blossom, with notes of aniseed, peach, lime blossom, mint, and pineapple when the grapes are grown on soils tending more towards clay. A saline, lemony finish reveals aromatic touches of licorice and brioche.
