Situated to the west of and parallel to the Côte de Beaune, the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune are higher hills, interspersed with faults, giving great variety to the crops and landscapes. What makes the Hautes-Côtes so special is the original way in which the vines are grown: high, wide vines that are less susceptible to frost than low vines.

The appellation covers 22 communes in Côte-d'Or and 7 communes in Saône-et-Loire. It covers an area of 835 hectares, with 669 hectares of red and rosé wines and 166 hectares of white wines.

- Clay-limestone soils. Marly formations, slopes covered with limestone scree.
- South-east exposure.
- Steep slopes.
- Altitude between 280 and 450 metres.

Once the grapes had been sorted and destemmed, the must was extracted by pneumatic pressing, then cooled and left to settle for 24-48 hours. The juice was then brought down to 18°C to start the alcoholic fermentation (which lasted 3 weeks) in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. Part (40%) of the cuvée was then placed in barrels (15% new) for 8 months' ageing before final blending. Light filtration before bottling.
