Côte Chalonnaise is a subregion of the Burgundy wine region of France. Côte Chalonnaise lies to the south of the Côte d’Or continuing the same geology southward. It is still in the main area of Burgundy wine production but it includes no Grand cru vineyards. Like the Côte d’Or it is at the western edge of the broad valley of the river Saône on the rising ground overlooking the town of Chalon-sur-Saône which is about six kilometers out into the plain.
