The esteemed Clos Saint-Denis Grand Cru graces the landscape between the villages of Morey-Saint-Denis and Gevrey-Chambertin, nestled amidst a landscape of remarkable steepness, boasting an impressive gradient of 13%. Ascending from altitudes of 284 to 309 meters, this distinguished lieu-dit gazes toward the east-southeast sun, basking in its radiant embrace.
A symphony of soil unfolds across the terrain, painting a portrait of elegance and complexity. To the east, a rich tapestry of reddish-brown soil, adorned with angular-to-rounded limestone fragments, lays the foundation for this noble vineyard.

Beneath this hallowed ground lies a tale of geological intrigue. To the east, a fine light-colored limestone, occasionally speckled with flint-like chert nodules, whispers tales of ancient origins. Meanwhile, to the west, where the slope steepens, a delicate layer of Comblanchien limestone scree, adorned with fine angular gravel, adds a touch of mystique to the vineyard's storied history.
