3. The Gold Coast Vineyard
Then, here comes the noble part of Burgundy Gold Coast, the one that makes dream all the wine lovers dream, La Côte de Nuits and La Côte de Beaune. The coast which looks eastward, but also the one that becomes golden in Autumn and which brings so much wealth !
It is where the best white and red wines of the world are produced but they also are the most expensive because of their history and their soils are now world recognized via The Climates at UNESCO. Indeed, its geology is complex on calcareous soil. But the relief is relatively cuts into the North part in Côte de Nuits near The “Dijon Mountain “.
The Côte de Beaune is softer in its reliefs even though beautiful cliffs intersect certain valleys. The End of the World, Saint Romain Cliffs are one of the best examples. The hikers walk on the wine road and on small paths (GR7…) between boxwood, vineyard, prairies and oak forest.
