Published in 1953 as part of the authoritative Atlas de la France Vinicole by L. Larmat, this detailed map documents the appellations of Rully and Mercurey, two historic communes of the Côte Chalonnaise in southern Burgundy. Produced during a period of renewed precision in French appellation governance, the atlas reflects a rigorous effort to codify vineyard geography with scientific and professional clarity.

The map carefully delineates vineyard parcels, commune boundaries, road networks, and topographical contours across the undulating limestone hills that characterize this sector of Burgundy. Subtle tonal shading indicates slope orientation and elevation—critical determinants in the cultivation of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Premier Cru climats are methodically identified, illustrating the structured hierarchy that defines Burgundy’s terroir-based classification system.

Rully, renowned for both still and sparkling wines, appears in relation to its gentle slopes and valley exposures, while Mercurey is shown extending across broader hillside formations known for structured, age-worthy reds. The cartographic layout emphasizes parcel precision, reflecting the fragmented and highly localized nature of Burgundian vineyard ownership.

Typography is restrained and technical, consistent with Larmat’s educational mission. Transport routes and proximity to regional commercial centers underscore the economic framework supporting wine distribution in the mid-twentieth century.

Both documentary and refined, this map captures the Côte Chalonnaise at a pivotal moment in its formal recognition and regulatory stabilization. Today, it stands as a sophisticated visual record of Rully and Mercurey’s vineyard mosaic—an enduring testament to the interplay of geology, classification, and Burgundian tradition.
