These wines represent the entry-level tier in Burgundy's classification system, offering a broad expression of the region's terroir. They can be made using Pinot Noir for reds and Chardonnay for whites. They are sourced from vineyard sites and are not included in more specific village, premier cru or grand cru classifications.
