The second-highest vineyard classification in Burgundy.

Em Profundidade

Burgundy has 600+ Premier Cru vineyards, labeled with both village and vineyard name (Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers). In Bordeaux's 1855 Classification, Premier Cru is the highest rank (5 châteaux). Context matters — Premier Cru means different things in different regions. In Burgundy, Premier Cru is below Grand Cru; in Bordeaux, it is the pinnacle.
