La Côte de Beaune (1953) is a classic mid-20th-century French wine map issued as part of the celebrated Les Vins de Bourgogne series, devoted to the vineyards of Burgundy. Produced at a time when French wine cartography was reaching a high point of both aesthetic refinement and technical accuracy, the map reflects the postwar effort to codify, promote, and protect Burgundy’s terroirs following the formalization of the Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée (AOC) system.

The map focuses on the Côte de Beaune, the southern half of the Côte d’Or, extending from Ladoix-Serrigny in the north to Maranges in the south. This region is renowned for some of the world’s greatest white wines, notably from Montrachet, Meursault, and Puligny-Montrachet, as well as outstanding red wines from Pommard, Volnay, and Beaune. Each commune is carefully delineated, with vineyard boundaries, appellations, and climat names clearly marked, emphasizing the extraordinary fragmentation and specificity that define Burgundy viticulture.

Graphically, the map combines scientific precision with an elegant, almost decorative style typical of French oenological prints of the 1950s. The sloping vineyards are arranged along the escarpment of the Côte, visually reinforcing the idea that geology, exposure, and drainage are fundamental to wine quality. Roads, villages, and natural features are shown to anchor the vineyards in their physical landscape, while subtle color coding distinguishes appellations and vineyard classifications.
