NUITS-SAINT-GEORGES

The appellation falls into two parts, divided by the town itself. The northern portion extends as far as the border of Vosne-
Romanée, and the southern section lies partly in Nuits-Saint-Georges and partly in Premeaux. Nuits-Saint-Georges is a likeable
and lively town with a centuries-old history of winemaking. It gives its name to the Côte de Nuits, and its patron saint, Saint
Georges, gives his name to their most famous wine. There are 41 climats within the Nuits-Saint-Georges AOC classified as
Premier Cru vineyards.
