Vignes sur le Cloux is a premier cru *climat* in Montagny-lès-Buxy, Côte Chalonnaise. Montagny is a white-wine-only commune — Chardonnay throughout — and its unusually permissive premier cru rules historically classified any parcel attaining minimum ripeness at that level, resulting in an extensive map of named sites.
Chardonnay, white only. Premier cru regulations apply: minimum density of 9,000 vines per hectare, yield ceiling around 45–48 hl/ha.
