The Domaine, in the village of Puligny-Montrachet in the very heart of the Cote de Beaune wine growing region of Burgundy, is now made up of 14 different appellations, stretching over 4 villages (Auxey-Duresses, Meursault, Volnay and Puligny-Montrachet). Overall production is split into 75% of white wines and 25% of red wines.
