Les Maranges
A well-preserved and authentic wine-growing regionAt the far end of the Grand Chalon region, the villages of Cheilly-lès-Maranges and Sampigny-lès-Maranges lie at the heart of the Cozanne Valley, an area characterised by its rolling hills, forests and vineyard-dotted landscapes. Here, Burgundy takes on a more intimate character, amidst steep hillsides, winding country lanes and rural heritage.
The Maranges vineyards, renowned for their Pinot Noir red wines, stretch across these slopes and play a vital role in shaping the region’s identity. Its ‘climats’ (vineyard plots), listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, bear witness to age-old expertise and a close bond between people and their environment.
In Sampigny-lès-Maranges, the heritage can be explored along a route that combines old houses, vernacular features and rural heritage, whilst in Cheilly-lès-Maranges, the village retains a strong wine-growing and agricultural identity, rooted in the valley’s history.
A few kilometres away, Saint-Sernin-du-Plain dominates the landscape and offers a different perspective on the region. With its hiking trails, local heritage sites and sweeping views, the village is an ideal starting point for exploring the hills of the Côte Chalonnaise.
With its vineyards and unspoilt natural surroundings, the Maranges region offers an authentic immersion in a wilder, more intimate side of Burgundy.
An appellation straddling two worlds
The Maranges appellation lies on the border between the Côte Chalonnaise and the Côte de Beaune, giving it a distinctive identity within the Burgundy wine region. Its wines, predominantly red, reflect the character of this transitional territory, characterised by rugged terrain and varied climatic influences.

Discovering Saint-Sernin-du-PlainSituated next to Les Maranges, Saint-Sernin du Plain overlooks the far end of the Côte Chalonnaise and offers views of beautiful, unspoilt countryside in the surrounding hamlets.
Saint-Sernin-du-Plain
Taking in the views of the Côte ChalonnaiseNestled on the edge of the Côte Chalonnaise, Saint-Sernin-du-Plain consists of a village centre and numerous scattered hamlets, surrounded by forests and hillsides. The village retains its distinctive rural heritage, with its church, wash houses and stone buildings, which bear witness to local life in days gone by.
The area is particularly popular for its outdoor activities. The footpaths lead up to Mont-Rome, whilst its cliffs are home to a renowned climbing site, offering a variety of routes in an unspoilt natural setting.
Every summer, the village becomes a cultural hub with the Nuits du Mont-Rome festival, which features concerts in an exceptional setting, blending music and scenery.
