Origins
The cru is made up of two north-south slopes, bounded by the Bourbonne and Mouge valleys. They are made up of Bajocian limestone with entrochs and Oxfordian (Jurassic) marl-limestone strata. Other land at the bottom of the slopes is made up of "chailles" clay (sandstone pebbles), facing east and well drained.
