Where Ruchottes-Chambertin sits in the Côte de Nuits

The Côte de Nuits is a hillside about 20 km long that runs from Dijon in the north to Corgoloin in the south. It holds 24 grand cru appellations in six communes and produces mainly red wine from Pinot Noir. The vineyard soils are thin, generally calcareous and well drained, and the climate is cool oceanic with continental and southern influences.

In Burgundy, the regional wine bureau counts “Côte de Nuits & Hautes Côtes de Nuits” as one of the five wine-growing regions of Bourgogne.
