Burgundy, in central-eastern France, is one of France's oldest wine-growing regions, renowned for its great vintages. The AOC Ladoix appellation extends over the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune vineyards, covering some 100 hectares of marl, clay and limestone soils. Pinot noir and Chardonnay vines are planted in this appellation, which produces both red and white wines (some of which are Premier Cru). The whites are mineral, full-bodied and fat, with notes of white flowers. The reds are round and tannic, with a complex aromatic bouquet. They can be kept for 3 to 5 years for the whites and 5 to 8 years for the reds.
