The AOC Nuits-Saint-Georges produces red wines in 41 climates classified as Premier Cru. It extends over the communes of Premeaux-Prissey and Nuits-Saint-Georges, with 310 hectares in total. The vineyard is made up of two very distinct parts, one to the north of Nuits-Saint-Georges, bordering the Vosne-Romanée appellation area; the other connects the two communes in a north to south orientation.
To the north, on the slopes of the Meuzin valley, the soil is composed of gravelly silt from the Côte or alluvium from the valley when it is not too high up. The southern silts come from the combe des Vallerots and constitute a deep soil of marl and limestone. The exposure of this vineyard varies from south-east to east. The producers produce some 12,600 hectoliters of wine each year, divided between whites from Chardonnay and reds, the majority of which are almost exclusively from Pinot Noir.
