Premier Cru is the second-highest classification in Burgundy — applied to over 600 specific vineyard sites across the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune that consistently produce wine of superior quality within their village appellation. Premier Cru wines represent around 10% of total Burgundy production. Like Grand Cru, the classification belongs to the vineyard itself — a Premier Cru label names the specific lieu-dit from which the wine comes.
The Premier Cru wines on the Amitié list span both the Côte de Nuits and the Côte de Beaune, both red and white, across four villages.
Côte de Nuits — Red Premier Cru
Les Combottes, Gevrey-Chambertin — directly adjacent to Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru, from vines planted in 1936. Domaine Amiot et Fils, Vigneron de l’Année 2026.
Les Millandes, Morey-Saint-Denis — adjacent to Clos de la Roche Grand Cru on the upper slope. Double coup de cœur 2026, Guide Hachette.
Les Chaffots, Morey-Saint-Denis — up to 75% whole cluster. Power and grace in equal measure. Mark Haisma, Tim Atkin Top 25.
Côte de Beaune — White Premier Cru
Meursault Poruzots, Meursault Charmes, and Meursault Genevrières from Domaine Buisson-Battault — three of Meursault’s most celebrated Premier Cru vineyards. Fifth-generation family, some vines planted as early as 1927.
Les Grèves Blanc, Beaune — one of only five producers making white wine in Beaune’s most celebrated Premier Cru. Le Grappin, named one of The 10 Best Unsung Burgundy Producers by Wine-Searcher.
En Caradeux, Pernand-Vergelesses — white Premier Cru from Mark Haisma aged in 2,500-litre barrels. Mineral precision from a village adjacent to Corton-Charlemagne.
