  Cote de Nuits-Villages
The Côte de Nuits is the northern of the two districts of the Côte d'Or, a narrow, eleven-mile ribbon of vineyards stretching from Marsannay, at the outskirts to Dijon, to Corgoloin, which adjoins Ladoix-Serrigny, the first commune of the Côte de Beaune.
As a general rule, the wines of the Côte de Nuits, due to the high content of chalky clay in the soils, are somewhat fuller, earthier, more complex and more tannic wines than those of the Côte de Beaune, but exceptions abound to this observation, particularly in the case of grand and premier cru wines.
In sharp contrast to the Côte de Beaune, only five villages, comprising 765 acres of vineyards, are entitled to the Côte de Nuits-Villages appellation, and only one of these, Fixin, with 265 acres of village-level vineyards, is alternately entitled to its own communal appellation.

 Fact Sheet - Louis Jadot - Nuits-Saint-Georges
The commune of Nuits-Saint-Georges is the southernmost commune of the Côte de Nuits, and includes, from a viticultural standpoint, the small adjoining commune of Prémeaux-Prissey, most of which is entitled to the Nuits-Saint-Georges appellation.
The name "Nuits" is derived from the Latin "nutium," later "nuys" and today "noyer," meaning "walnut tree," abundant in the area until the 18th century.
Beyond wine, Nuits produces large quantities of fruit juices from orchards which must have been present centuries ago: several vineyard names, such as Les Pruliers (plum tree) and Les Porrets (pear tree) are corruptions of names of fruit- bearing trees.

 Burgundy Primer - Cote de Nuits by Yak Shaya
The Cote de Nuits comprises the northern part of the Cote d'Or.
The name "Nuits" has always been associated with the better known wines of Bourgogne, even though there are no Grands Crus here.
The second reason for the old established demand for Nuits is the simple fact that before the laws of appellations in Bourgogne, all of what we call today 'Villages' wine, and even some of the 1er Crus, were sold through the market places of near-by towns.

Dido is the pick of the bunch - rightly - and the combination of robust, furious tone and serene rememberance of her "nuit d'ivresse" is heart-stopping.
Her voice is wonderfully suited for both the lightness required for "Villanelle" and the drama in "Sur les lagunes".
