A.O.C./A.O.P.
the steep gradient separating Burgundy’s ‘mountain’ from the valley floor of the Saône, is not only the prerogative of the Côte de Beaune and its northerly neighbour, the Côte de Nuits. Tucked away at higher elevations are the Hautes Côtes, an extremely fragmented area where vines have been growing at altitudes of between 300 and 450 metres since time immemorial. 22 villages in the Côte d’Or department and 7 in Saône-et-Loire are entitled to use this appellation.
Grape varieties: Vins rouges : Pinot noir . Vins blancs secs : Chardonnay

drawn from Pinot noir and Chardonnay, these wines are lighter than those of the Côte, their acidity greater. They reward earlier drinking too and are approachable, pleasant wines from an aromatic perspective. Enjoyable with barbecues (reds), fish or shellfish (whites).
