Chambolle-Musigny in the Côte de Nuits

The Côte de Nuits is the hillside of the Côte-d’Or that runs from Dijon in the north to Corgoloin in the south. It makes mainly red wine from Pinot Noir. Chambolle-Musigny is one of its village appellations, and one of six communes in the Côte de Nuits that hold grand cru vineyards. The area has 24 grand cru appellations in all.

The commune also holds two grand cru appellations: Musigny, and part of Bonnes-Mares, which it shares with Morey-Saint-Denis.

Limestone slopes of the Côte de Nuits

Vineyard soils across the Côte de Nuits are thin, generally calcareous and well drained. They range from lean, very calcareous soils at the top of the slope to deeper soils, about 0.50 m, decarbonated at the surface on the piedmont. The front of the slope is Middle Jurassic limestone, with hard Comblanchien limestone as its backbone. The wider region is covered under Burgundy.
