Description

(a)

Planting density: The minimum vine planting density is 9 000 plants per hectare, with a maximum distance of 1,25 metres between rows and a minimum distance of 0,50 metres between plants in the same row. – The vines do not have to be planted in rows as long as the minimum planting density is respected and the spaces between plants exceeds 0,50 metres. – Vines may have a minimum planting density of 5 000 plants per hectare with a spacing between rows of 2,20 metres or less, subject to the signing of an agreement by the National Institute of Origin and Quality (INAO), the protection and management body (ODG), the authorised operator concerned and the winemaking operator in line with the framework agreement approved by the relevant national committee on 29 June 2023. The area of these vines is limited to 10 % of the total area of the parcels of the holding producing the wine covered by the designation and to 1 hectare per holding.

(b)

Pruning rules: The wines come from vines pruned according to the following provisions: General provisions – The vines are pruned to a maximum of 8 buds per plant: – either by spur pruning (vines trained to cordon de Royat, bilateral cordon, gobelet and éventail); – or by cane pruning using the single Guyot method. Special provisions – the period for establishing the cordon is limited to two years. During this period, double Guyot pruning to a maximum of five buds on each cane is permitted. Single Guyot pruning may be adapted by using a second spur, which makes it possible to vary the position of the cane from one year to the next. Regardless of the pruning method, the vines can be pruned with extra buds on condition that, at the phenological stage corresponding to 11 or 12 leaves, the annual number of fruit-bearing branches per plant does not exceed the number of buds established by the pruning rules.

For vines planted at fewer than 9 000 plants per hectare, the pruning rules have been adapted to take account of the fact that the number of buds or fruit-bearing branches per plant is meant per square metre.

Summary of the link

(a)   Description of the natural factors relevant to the link

The geographical area is situated in the Côte de Beaune winegrowing region, an undulating, straight-sided ridge extending some 25 kilometres in a roughly north-east/south-west direction. This elevation of tectonic origin separates the limestone plateaux of the ‘Hautes Côtes’ to the west, at an altitude of between 400 and 500 metres, from the Bresse plain to the east, a Tertiary graben at an altitude of around 250 metres, at right angles to the ‘Côte’ (slope). The geographical area comprises the municipalities of Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet, south of the town of Beaune, in the department of Côte-d’Or, Burgundy. Blagny is a hamlet whose territory is shared by the two municipalities. Nestled in the heart of the main hillside, it occupies a small limestone terrace, punctuated by former quarries. The parcels demarcated for the grape harvest occupy a natural amphitheatre with gentle slopes crowned by woodland. Located halfway up the ‘Côte’, between 300 metres and 380 metres above sea level, around the hamlet of Blagny, they enjoy an easterly aspect, facing the rising sun. The bedrock consists mainly of marl (clayey limestone) from the Oxfordian age (Upper Jurassic) and, on the lower part, dalle nacrée (pearly slab) limestone from the Callovian age (Middle Jurassic). The slope’s marl-limestone bedrock is often concealed by layers of scree formed of a mix of clay and silt, resulting from the deterioration of the subsoil and the overlying terrain. The nature and thickness of these layers depend on their position on the slope. Very stony and not very thick at the top of the slope, these layers are slightly more developed on the flatter areas (from a few decimetres to one metre). The soils are poorly developed, highly carbonated and thin. On marl, they can be heavy and clayey, but good drainage is ensured by the slope. On the dalle nacrée, they are very stony but easily penetrated by the roots. The water supply is ensured by the interstitial humidity of the weathered limestone, which ensure extremely effective drainage during wet periods. The climate is maritime and cool, disrupted by continental and southern influences passing through the Rhône-Saône corridors. The ‘Côte’, to the east of the Morvan massif and the Burgundy plateaux, enjoys a sheltered position that makes it warmer and drier than the region in general, which is conducive to high-quality winegrowing (Foehn effect). The specific situation of the geographical area brings a certain coolness, linked to the relative altitude, although this is largely offset by the amount of sunshine afforded to the area by its open landscape and by the fact that the area is protected from the westerly and the northerly winds. The site is a natural amphitheatre and is particularly hot during the summer months, which explains the presence of naturally occurring plant life with Mediterranean characteristics.

(b)   Description of the human factors relevant to the link

According to a study by Pierre Forgeot, vines first appeared in the Côte de Beaune region in the second century BC. From the 15th century onwards, ‘Beaune’ wines conquered the whole of Europe. They were the ‘brand image’ of the Duchy of Burgundy at its peak. These heady, low-tannin red wines, known as ‘pinots vermeils’ (vermilion pinots), were the only wines suitable for transporting. The 18th century saw the rise of merchant-winegrowers in Burgundy, giving the region’s wines a new identity and establishing their widespread distribution across Europe. Côte de Beaune supplied ‘fine wines’ to Beaune’s wine merchants, which held a large share of the market. The small hamlet of Blagny, located on the boundary between the municipalities of Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet, first appeared in historical records in the Middle Ages. Its origins lie in an outlying estate of the Cistercian Abbey of Maizières, situated a few kilometres to the east. Although little evidence of this grange remain, its memory has been preserved in local place names, notably in the route known as the ‘Monks’ Path’, linking Blagny to the plain. At the time of the French revolution, Maizières disappeared, having being confiscated and then sold as a national asset, and its possessions were dispersed. At the beginning of the 19th century, however, ‘Blagny’ wines emerged among the most highly regarded ‘crus of Puligny’. Jullien (as early as 1816), Dr Lavalle (1855) and later Danguy and Aubertin (1892) all refer to them. Situated between the renowned names of ‘Meursault’ and ‘Puligny’, celebrated for their great white wines, ‘Blagny’ has made a name for itself thanks to the red wines produced around the hamlet. These wines were officially recognised under the ‘Blagny’ protected designation of origin in 1937. Since the 18th century, the vineyards and the factors that determine their quality have been the subject of extensive study, and many authors have produced classifications of Burgundy’s crus. The classifications drawn up by the Beaune Winegrowing Committee in 1860 represent the culmination of this work. For each municipality of the ‘Côte’, each climat (the common name for a specific vineyard site, usually a lieu-dit, i.e. a plot with a traditional, local name) planted with a cépage fin (elegant variety) was classified on a quality scale. In 1943, a list of climats eligible to use the term ‘premier cru’ was recognised. ‘Blagny’ is a protected designation of origin reserved exclusively for red wines. The main vine variety is Pinot Noir N. The vines are trained in line with current practices in the Côte de Beaune region, including, in particular, planting densities of more than 9 000 plants per hectare. It is customary to mature the wines for at least eight months. In 2008, the vineyards covered an area of around 5 hectares, producing an annual average of 165 hectolitres.

(c)   Information on the quality and characteristics of the product

Deeply coloured, with hues tending to garnet, the wines often have a fairly robust yet velvety tannic structure, underpinned by a certain liveliness. They have a beautiful fruitiness often with predominant small black fruits and spicy notes, evolving with ageing into notes of game or undergrowth. A few years in the cellar temper the exuberance of their youth.

(d)   Causal interactions

The cool maritime climate, the topography of the ‘Côte’ and the marl and limestone soils of the Jurassic period help the native Burgundy variety Pinot Noir N to thrive. In the geographical area of ‘Blagny’, this variety is especially unique owing to the singular characteristics of the site. The altitude and the heavy marly bedrock contribute to a certain austerity in the structure of the wines, while the heat stored by the amphitheatre, consisting of the combe and its wooded crown, considerably aids the ripening process. The terrain, the geological diversity and the variety of soils that have developed give rise to a wide array of nuances in the wines, which have long encouraged producers to differentiate between the climats making up the winegrowing area. These nuances are highlighted through the common practice of labelling the wines with the name of the climat where the grapes were grown. The wines’ long period of élevage, enhancing their suitability for bottle-ageing, helps strengthen the expression of this diversity, apparent in the taste. In 1816, Jullien listed ‘Blagny’ red wines as third class wines among the fine Burgundy wines. In 1860, the Beaune Winegrowing Committee ranked most of the area as first class. The lieux-dits making up the ‘Blagny’ area are now classified as ‘premier cru’. Wines with the ‘Blagny’ protected designation of origin are unique and a rarity within Burgundy’s protected designations of origin. They are not widely distributed and tasting them is still an emotional experience for enthusiasts.
