Chorey les Beaune

Chorey-lès-Beaune is an appellation within the Burgundy wine region in France. It is located in the Côte de Beaune subregion and produces red and white wines. The red wines are made from Pinot Noir grapes, while the white wines are made from Chardonnay grapes. The wines are typically medium-bodied, with flavours and aromas of red fruit, such as cherry and raspberry, along with subtle earthy and spicy notes. Chorey-lès-Beaune is considered a less prestigious and less expensive alternative to other Burgundy red wine regions such as Gevrey-Chambertin and Clos de Vougeot. Chorey-lès-Beaune AOC (Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée) was created in the early 1930s and it is the largest of the communes in the Côte de Beaune subregion of Burgundy.
