This part of the Cote d'Or is very rural with stone houses and lush green pastures and woodlands. Most villages have their own small vineyards, and the main wine areas of Cote de Beaune and Cote de Nuits are fairly close. The area is steeped in history - Alesia, where Vercingétorix made his last stand against the Romains in 52AD, is about 10 kilometres away. The beautiful hill-town of Flavigny, where the annis sweets are made is only 10 kilometres away and Semur-en-Auxois, an historic medieval town is close.
